What are the reasons for insufficient tire pressure displayed in the left tire?
1 Answers
The reasons for insufficient tire pressure displayed in the left tire include air leakage from the tire or valve, which requires timely repair; deformation of the wheel hub leading to reduced tire sealing performance; long-term overloading of the vehicle causing uneven tire stress; and thermal expansion and contraction resulting in insufficient tire pressure. Solutions for insufficient tire pressure: If no visible damage is found, simply inflate the tire to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system; If inspection reveals a puncture in the tire, promptly drive to a tire shop for repair, then reinflate the tire; If the tire pressure warning reappears some time after inflation without any puncture, it may be due to air leakage caused by wheel hub deformation. It is recommended to check the wheel hub and replace it if necessary. Hazards of low tire pressure: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Heavier steering wheel and tendency to veer off course, which are detrimental to driving safety; Increased movement of various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; Reduced functionality of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim causing damage and abnormal wear at the bead area; Exponentially increased friction between the tire and the ground, rapid rise in tire temperature, softening of the tire, and a sharp decline in strength. High-speed driving may result in a blowout; Increased deformation of the tire body, prone to cracks on the tire side, along with flexing motion leading 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 at the tire shoulder.
