How to Deal with Low Tire Pressure Warning?
1 Answers
Adjust the tire pressure to the standard level and drive for a certain distance. Generally, the low tire pressure warning light will turn off automatically. Hazards of Low Tire Pressure: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Results in a heavy steering wheel and tendencies to veer off course, which are factors detrimental to driving safety; Increases the movement of various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heating due to excessive rolling; Reduces the functionality of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim causing damage to the bead area and abnormal wear; Multiplies the friction between the tire and the ground, causing a sharp rise in tire temperature, softening of the tire, and a drastic decrease in strength. High-speed driving under such conditions may lead to tire blowouts; Increases tire body deformation, making the tire side prone to cracks, while also generating flexing movements that lead to excessive heat, accelerating rubber aging, fatigue of the cord layers, and cord breakage. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating wear on the tire shoulders.
