Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
TPMS Inspection/Repair
Your Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) helps alert you when one or more tires are underinflated, improving vehicle safety, tire life, and fuel efficiency. If your TPMS warning light stays on or flashes, there may be a problem with a tire pressure sensor, battery, or system communication.

Frequently Asked Questions
A TPMS warning light may indicate low tire pressure, a faulty TPMS sensor, a dead sensor battery, or a communication issue within the tire pressure monitoring system. Professional diagnostics can identify the cause and restore proper operation.
Most TPMS sensors last between 5 and 10 years, depending on driving conditions and battery life. As the sensor battery weakens, you may experience warning lights, inaccurate readings, or sensor communication failures.
Yes. Some vehicles require a TPMS relearn procedure after tire replacement, wheel rotation, or sensor replacement. This process ensures the vehicle correctly recognizes each sensor and displays accurate tire pressure information.
