If you drive a late-model Chevrolet vehicle, it is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that helps you maintain accurate tire pressure on all four corners. If the air pressure drops below a certain psi in one or more of your vehicle's tires, the tire pressure monitoring system indicator light will appear on your dashboard. This warning light looks like U-shaped flat tire with an exclamation point inside.
If this warning light appears on your car or truck's dashboard, add air to your vehicle's tires at any gas station or stop into our local service department. We'll ensure all four tires are inflated to the proper air pressure for your application and check to ensure the indicator light is reset. Adding air to the low tire(s) should reset the sensor and turn off the warning light. If the light does not turn off, the professional auto mechanics at our dealership near Monroe, Georgia, are ready to assist you.
Maintaining proper tire pressure is an essential part of your automotive safety on the roads of Loganville, Georgia. After all, tires connect your new Chevrolet Silverado to the road. Under-inflated tires may lead to reduced fuel economy, poor acceleration, limited stopping power, and loss of handling. Their care should not be overlooked. Under-inflated tires are also more likely to result in a blowout than maintained tires. While the tire pressure monitoring system is there as a backup, we suggest you perform regular pressure checks yourself. It's easy to keep a tire pressure gauge in your car's glove compartment and check the tires while you're filling up.
There are two common types of tire pressure monitoring systems on today's new Chevy models: direct tire pressure monitoring systems and indirect tire pressure monitoring systems.
Proper wheel alignment is key to prolonging the life of your tires. If your vehicle is misaligned, it can cause your tires to wear unevenly, and you may experience handling problems such as pulling or abnormal vibration.
Check your tires at least once a month when the tires are cold, meaning the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours or no more than 1 mile. The Tire Information Label located on the inside of your doorframe has the recommended cold tire pressure for your vehicle.
It’s important to rotate your tires according to the correct tire-rotation pattern. Doing so will prolong the life of your tires and will reduce the risk of sudden tire failure. Front tires encounter different tasks than the rear tires.
