Unhappy Defective Vavle Stem

Anyone else have a defective valve stem? I went to add air and the valve stem snapped completely in half at the threads. Machine shop when cutting the threads into the valve stem went to deep with the threads and cause a fracture in the metal. Car out of service for a day since Mazda dealership did not have the part in stock.

Note: The tire kit is completely useless in this case. Call a tow truck!
