Replying to: heyheyjude (Nov 22, 2008 9:41 pm) Otherwise you might soon be involved in a rollover due to a partially deflated tire overheating and blowing out (think Ford Exploder). Some, undoubtedly, will refer to the TPMS as being overly sensitive but I would much rather have the early warning of a potential tire problem.

Replying to: wwest (Nov 23, 2008 10:09 am) Steve...you hit the proverbial nail on the head. That 'icon' you inserted is EXACTLY what the light is. After I posted, I called the gentleman at the dealership who goes over the features, etc. before you take the new car off the lot and he said it was the tire pressure. He even said it could be in the spare (that makes no sense to me). As the other repliers stated, I AM glad it came on to alert me, but it still infuriates me that I haven't had that car two weeks and am going on a long trip in two days, so I have to find someone to check/fill all tires. But, that is better than having a flat or worse, an accident. I'm sorry for the others who're experiencing this and worse. Steve, I'm so glad you resolved your problem before something happened to you...I had the same problem in a rental once; needless to say, I ended up renting it at no cost.  Again, thanks so much for the invaluable help. I feel much better, y'all. jude

Does anyone know where a download (PDF file) of the owner's manual may be found?
