tire pressure warning light? by randypape

hello does this stupid light ever go out once it comes on. our outside temp got down to 4 degrees and so my right rear tire showed up on the warning light. i read on here where a bunch of people had similar problems. i know my tire pressures before this cold spell were fine.i agree with others that this is definitely not a feature that's needed because of the inaccuracies. thanks Randy

I know alot of people with the same problem with tire pressure sensors. Seems to be they are affected by temperature.
 
  Friend of mine with a FX45 has the same issue...those things should take into consideration stuff like outside temperature and tire temperature IMO!

Likewise I have another friend with an FX45 and she has the same issue whenever it is cold.

So, some would say FX45 are junk.
 
 Hell no! I think they're absolutely great cars.

Protect your tire valves, TPMS by perdido2key

The tire pressure warning sensors are located inside the wheel and are attached to the tire valve.
If you have a flat tire removed from the wheel or a new tire installed by a non Hyundai tire vendor be SURE and warn them about the sensor.
The air powered mounting machine can ruin the sensor when the metal dismount bar sweeps around the wheel.

Update on my Veracruz TPMS problem. After 4 trips to the dealer, they finally fixed the on and off TPMS light. The problem was not low or high tire pressure, or the codes needing to be reset, it was the COMPUTER MODULE.
After one week, so far no problems with TPMS light.
My wife and I love the car, and now have 10,000 miles on it.

TPMS Reset by brooch

Does anyone know if the TPMS needs to be reset after a tire repair? Tire shop had the proper machine to work on rim with TPMS, however after putting tire back on I still have the warning light for that particular tire still showing. Do I need to wait a bit for it to reset or is it supposed to reset right away? Your input is appreciated!
Keep in Cruzin!!

The reset typically occurs after 30 to 40 miles of driving.

Front Tire Cupping? by hotrudderedbum

Hi All,
 
My 08 VC Limited had about 1500 miles on it when purchased (manager used it to & from work). It has performed more or less flawlessly in the intervening 10 months. I have, however, noticed gradually increasing tire noise/ vibration at highway speeds. After a 700 mile road last week it was annoying enough that I took it to a good tire/ alignment shop to get the tires rebalanced.
 
After inspecting them, the mechanic pointed out that the inside edges of the front tires were badly cupped, which probably caused the noise & shakes. He insisted the problem wasn't balance or alignment but a problem with the front suspension and I would be well advised to take it to the dealership for a warranty repair.
 
I'll caveat here by saying I never rotated the tires in 13000 miles, but feel that if I had rotated them, I'd now have 4 cupped tires instead of 2.
 
I'm inclined to trust the mechanic's opinion because he had the opportunity to sell me $100 worth of bal. & alignment but didn't.
 
Before I go face the dealership I was wondering if any of you have had similar experience?
 
Thoughts?
