FAQs
Why is my TPMS light on even after adjusting my tire pressure to the recommended level?
Sometimes the TPMS light can stay on even after adjusting tire pressure. There are several reasons this would happen, including extremely cold weather, a recent tire change or rotation, or a malfunctioning TPMS sensor.
Do I have to reset TPMS immediately after the warning light comes on?
It would be a mistake to ignore a TPMS warning. Remember, proper tire pressure is crucial to your car’s braking performance and stability. If you are currently driving and the light comes on, safely pull off to the side of the room and check your tire pressure.
