| Description of the problem | Tire pressure monitor keeps coming on. I have taken the car to 2 different retailers and they just reset the tpm. They cannot find any issues with the tires or the tpm. This means that the tpm software is defective. One of them said to just look at the tires to check if there is enough pressure and keep driving. I called the benz customer service department and they just referred me back to the retailers. |
