What are the causes of tire pressure monitoring system failure in the Range Rover Evoque?
1 Answers
The causes of tire pressure monitoring system failure in the Range Rover Evoque are low tire pressure or tire damage leading to low pressure. If the issue is simply due to insufficient tire pressure, inflating the tires can resolve it. However, if the problem stems from tire damage, a visit to a repair shop is necessary for proper maintenance. Hazards of low tire pressure: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Results in heavy steering and tendencies to veer off course, compromising driving safety; Excessive movement of tire components causing abnormal heat generation due to over-compression; Degradation of cord and rubber functions, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim causing damage to the bead area and abnormal wear; Exponential increase in friction between the tire and ground, causing rapid temperature rise, softening of the tire, and drastic reduction in strength. High-speed driving under these conditions may result in tire blowouts; Increased tire body deformation, leading to cracks on the sidewalls and flexing movements that generate excessive heat, accelerating rubber aging, fatigue in the cord layers, and cord breakage. It also enlarges the tire's contact area with the ground, hastening wear on the tire shoulders.
