· You need to check all four tires, fill each one with the recommended air pressure then gently release air from the tire and check the car display panel. A tire that doesn’t send a message means that it has a defective sensor and it needs to be checked or replaced. Make sure you mark the wheel with the defective sensor and fill the other tires with the recommended air pressure.
· Over the last decade, the introduction of tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) has revolutionized the way motorists, shops and manufacturers approach tire maintenance. The system provides a great safety benefit to motorists by alerting them of underinflated tires. Low tire pressure may lead to a blowout and vehicle crash.
