Can You Still Drive When Volkswagen Shows Pressure Loss?
1 Answers
You can still drive when Volkswagen shows pressure loss. Here are the specific details about the pressure loss warning: 1. Driving precautions: After pressure loss is detected, a vehicle traveling at high speed should brake slowly and avoid emergency braking to prevent the risk of a tire blowout. Allow the vehicle to come to a gradual stop by the roadside, turn on the hazard warning lights, set up a warning sign behind the vehicle, and then inspect the condition of all four tires for punctures or leaks. Additionally, excessively low tire pressure can easily lead to severe pressure loss. When tire pressure is too low, the tire shoulders bear a heavier load, and prolonged driving in this state can cause permanent damage. Over time, the tires may age, crack, and leak, significantly reducing their lifespan. 2. Warning principle: Like the ABS system, tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) have gradually become standard equipment in vehicles. When the TPMS detects insufficient pressure in one or more tires, it will illuminate a warning light on the dashboard along with a text alert to notify the driver. At this point, the driver should promptly adjust the tire pressure to the standard value and reset the TPMS to clear the warning light.
