My TPMS system has never worked reliably since new. It is on now and has been on intermittently for 40,000 miles. Typically it comes on and stays on for a week to a month and checking or adjusting tire pressure seems to have no effect on whether it is on or suddenly off for a month or two. I am concerned I might really have a failing tire or low pressure and because the light is on I cannot know. I understand the NHTSA requires this system. Is it safe to be so unreliable?
