If the Tire Pressure Management System in the Jeep Patriot is not working properly, you may have to reset the system. Follow the step below to re-initialize the TPMS.
The light indicator is a notification to warn you of significantly low air pressure or high-pressure loss in your tires, which can affect the vehicle’s overall performance.
2009 – 2017 Models
Low-Pressure Warning
- If the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) light comes on, check the tire pressure.
- Inflate any low tires to the manufacturer-recommended PSI. This information can be found on a placard on the inside edge of the driver’s side door.
- Drive the vehicle for about 20 minutes above 15 mph to turn off the TPMS light.
Repairing or Replacing a Tire
- Place the repaired or new tire on the vehicle.
- The vehicle system will automatically update.
What to Do if the Light Doesn’t Go Off
After this, the warning light should be clear. However, keep in mind that after the tires are inflated, the outdoor temperature affects how fast the air in the tires will adjust to the proper temperature. This could take a day or more. 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, as there could possibly be a sensor issue or a tire puncture.
Tips on Checking the Recommended Air Levels:
- Refer to the Manufacturer’s Sticker located on the inside of the Driver’s door.
- Follow the recommended PSI/Air Pressure Levels (The warning will not disappear if pressure is lower than the recommendation).
- Make sure the spare has the correct amount of air as well (Yes, there is a sensor).
**NOTE: If you are unable to Reset the Tire Pressure Warning Light in the Jeep Patriot on the first try, REPEAT the step. If you are still unsuccessful, contact the dealership for assistance or consult your vehicle user’s manual.
