What does 'Please check TPMS' mean?
1 Answers
Please check TPMS means to check the Tire Pressure Monitoring System. If the dashboard displays 'Please check TPMS system', it may indicate abnormal tire pressure or a sensor malfunction. Before long-distance or high-speed driving, always check your tire pressure and inspect the tire surface for visible damage. Tires are the only components of a vehicle that contact the road surface, making them crucial for driving stability and safety. Tire pressure should neither be too high nor too low. Insufficient pressure during high-speed driving can cause wave-like deformation of the tires, increasing the risk of a blowout. Excessive tire pressure reduces the contact area between the tire and the road, negatively affecting vehicle handling and driving stability.
