If you read the owner's manual, there is a procedure to reset the system after tire service. I've have done it myself with no problems.....although I will add that my light always comes on now when the outside temp drops below 32 degrees F. I had my tires rotated at Town Fair Tire in NH, they said they can reset the TPMS for $20 and said the dealer would do it for a lot more, but then told me that the owner's man tells you how to do it. So naturally, I did it myself.
Now I have a cold weather issue and the dealer says the light will come on because of the pressure drop with the cold weather, but if its always around freezing temp, wouldn't that make the TPMS system useless and defective? Even after driving 30 miles the light still stayed on. I think the TPMS is BS anyway, what good is it gonna do when you have a blowout at 70 mph!?!? I always do a walk around my car every so often, can't help it I detailed cars for many years and am paranoid about anything being wrong!
The Automotive/Tire industries had better work out any issues with the TPMS or there
might be some opposition, but from what I've researched, the US Gov is the driving force behind this system and DON'T you dare oppose the MAN!!
