Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
What is it?
Since 2008, every Honda has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that monitors the pressure in all four tires and alerts the driver if pressure in any tire becomes significantly low. Drivers should also regularly check their tires' pressure using an accurate gauge.
Some Honda TPMS systmes have battery powered sensors inside the wheels. Batteries inside these sensors have ana expected lifespan of 7-10 years. When a battery in any sensor fails, an indicator on the instrument panel come on and the system will no longer monitor the tire pressure.
What if I ignore it?
- You could inadvertently ddrive on a significantly under-inflated tire, which could cause the tire to overheat and then unexpectedly fail/blow out
- Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability
What if I take care of it?
- Prolong tire life
- Increase fuel efficiency
- Improve ride characteristics, handling, and comfort
