Maybe a stupid question but will ask anyway. When replacing the stem, does that also mean replacing the TPMS or can they replace the stems without also replacing the TPMS?
If you read the attached service bulletin in my original post, you can reuse the TPMS as long as you inspect it and it is not damaged.

This may also be why they did not replace the valve stem. More work.
