Tire Pressure Light

Types of Chantilly TPMS Service

Manassas Direct Monitoring Systems

Direct tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) warn Fairfax drivers when the air pressure in any of their tires drops at least 25% below the recommended cold tire inflation pressure. Direct systems have a TPMS sensor in each wheel, generate pretty accurate warnings and cause the tire pressure light in the dashboard to come on if any one tire falls below a predetermined level due to rapid air loss.

Fairfax Indirect Monitoring Systems

Indirect tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) warns Fairfax drivers when a single tire has lost at least 25% of its tire pressure compared to other tires on the Honda. It's a little less accurate than the direct system for Virginia drivers, but its still useful.  The reason its not as accurate is because it doesn't specify which car tire pressure is low, and doesn't warn the driver if all four tires are losing pressure at around the same rate (like during the fall and winter months when operating temperatures get colder). Additionally, indirect systems sometimes generate false warnings.

Why is Chantilly Low Tire Pressure Bad?

Driving your Honda on tires with low car tire pressure can create unsafe conditions in a hurry, particularly in Chantilly bad weather. If your Honda  tire pressure is too low and you continue to drive around Virginia, you could severely damage your Honda's tires, and you may eventually blow a tire. Driving with low tire pressure also impacts your gas mileage, car handling, and will reduce the life of your Manassas car tires .

Centreville Drivers With Low Tire Pressure

Studies have shown that people operating their cars without the recommended tire pressure is common. It's been estimated that about one out of every four Honda driving around Centreville is driving without the proper tire pressure. That means that roughly one out of every four drivers is negatively impacting their vehicle's fuel economy and handling, and costing themselves money by reducing their tires' durability and tread life.

If you are unsure of which TMPS service your Honda has, stop by Joyce Koons Honda Service in Manassas, Virginia to have your car tire pressure checked.

Since Manassas tire pressure systems aren't always 100% accurate, make sure you check your Honda tires to help ensure they have the proper tire pressure, or have Joyce Koons Honda Service check it against your tire pressure chart, at regular intervals.
Fairfax Tire Pressure Monitoring

If the Honda you're driving starts to have low car tire pressure, you'll be warned, thanks to the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) in your Honda. The TPMS is often referred to as your tire pressure light. It comes on to warn the driver when a tire is significantly underinflated and not close to the recommended tire pressure. The main purpose of these systems is to warn Fairfax drivers if their tires are losing tire pressure, leaving the tires underinflated and dangerous.
