FAQS
What if the light doesn’t turn off?
If the light remains illuminated, it might be because the outdoor temperature affects how fast the air in the tires will adjust to the right temperature. This could take minutes or a day or two, so be patient and give the tires time to adjust. If the tire pressure warning light stays illuminated past a week, you will need to have your vehicle serviced. There could possibly be a sensor issue or a tire puncture.
NOTE: If you are unable to Reset the Tire Pressure Warning Light on the first try, REPEAT the steps. If you are still unsuccessful, contact the dealership for assistance or consult your vehicle user’s manual.
