Tires are one of the most critical safety features on a vehicle yet most people ignore them. Tires influence the vehicle’s ability to handle, steer, brake, and maintain stability. If tires are under-inflated safety is compromised. Sudden tire failure can have serious consequences, especially at highway speeds. Did you know… There’s a flat tire for every 46,000 miles driven Three out of four roadside flats are preceded by a slow leak or under-inflation It’s estimated that low tire pressure is responsible for nearly a quarter of a million accidents annually Damage to the TPMS system can be caused by hitting a pothole or curb, even from a normal tire change Sensor damage or failure may occur from day one of vehicle ownership What is TPMS? TPMS or Tire Pressure Monitoring System is a safety device that measures tire pressure and temperature to identify potential danger. TPMS warns the driver when one or more tires is significantly under-inflated. Does My Vehicle have TPMS? Check your owner’s manual or watch the dash during start-up for a tire pressure warning light or tire pressure display. Ask your trusted service technician to: Test your TPMS sensors before servicing your tires Alert you if any of your sensors aren’t working properly before servicing the tire or wheel assembly Reprogram your TPMS sensors and confirm that your vehicle’s TPMS system is working properly Besides improving safety, monitoring tire pressure can help you save at the pump and improve overall vehicle performance, but only if the system is properly maintained.
