Tire Pressure Monitoring System

Your Tire Pressure Monitoring System, often referred to as TPMS, is an electronic system designed to monitor the pressure in your tires. This system uses real time tire pressure information to alert you and other on-board systems if there is a tire pressure problem. If your tire pressure drops to an unsafe level, it will alert you via a dashboard light or warning message. Many systems will also tell you which tire has a pressure issue. Low tire pressure is not only a safety concern, but it will drastically reduce the life of a tire and affect gas mileage. Tire pressure sensors are powered by a non-serviceable battery and will eventually fail due to low battery voltage. The average lifespan of a tire pressure sensor is 7-9 years. It is also recommended, by the sensor manufacturers, that they be replaced or serviced during every tire installation. At Mobile Tire Doctor we have the tools, equipment, training and knowledge to properly service or diagnose your TPMS.
