| Description of the problem | The tpms constantly displays false warning messages about the tires being low on pressure. This began about two years ago, when the car was 7 years old, 100k miles. Numerous trips to the dealer and other repair shops has not alleviated the problem. Tpms constantly giving a false warning about low tire pressure is a serious problem. Much like smoke alarms which give false notice, false tire pressure warnings will be ignored. The vehicle is typically in a moving condition when the tpms issues a false alert. |
