My low tire pressure light warning light is on. i put air in the tires but the light didn’t go off. Does this mean that I put the wrong amount of psi in the tire or does it indicate a lingering problem? Is it supposed to go off when the right amount of air is put in the tire?

Did you check the actual tire pressure in each tire with a pressure gauge, preferably a dial type? Don’t trust the pressure gauge on the pump. Check the tires for any punctures, usually a nail in the tread. Has a tire been replaced or the tires rotated recently? The TPMS (Tire Pressure Managemen…

I guarantee that it was a problem before you picked it up. It’s a non issue for you. Just point out to them when you return it that it has this problem. They aren’t going to blame you for this. They are the ones responsible for the maintenance on the vehicle. Now if you crash it then your responsibl…

These gimmicky systems have battery operated “transducers” or other sensors on each tire that can be very expensive to troubleshoot and repair. If you car is out of warranty, check your tires with a tire gauge once a month like the rest of us and ignore the light…Or get your wallet out and support your mechanic while he goes on a fishing expedition at your expense…
