What owners wrote
Why driving the tire pressure indicator light will come on in the dash and the computer will state ?tire pressure sensor fault.? I have had it into the dealer four times and they have replaced the sensors and still having the same issue. The dealership has told me it has to do with a cell phone charger plugged into the cigarette lighter and setting off the tire pressure indicator on the dash, as well as sending a false signal to the computer.
