Frequently asked questions
2016 Dodge Dart Limited shown

On the Dodge Dart, the tire pressure light means one or more monitored tires is at least 25 percent below the pressure shown on the driver’s door-jamb placard, or that the tire pressure monitoring system has a fault. The warning is a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria in Peoria, Arizona, helps Dodge Dart drivers identify whether the concern is low tire pressure, a puncture, a leaking valve stem, or a tire pressure sensor issue. The dealership’s tire pressure light service checks every monitored tire, verifies each sensor’s signal and battery status, and confirms the system after tire or sensor work. Drivers can schedule service for professional diagnosis and appropriate next steps.

What the tire pressure light means on a Dodge Dart

A steadily illuminated tire pressure light shows that one or more monitored tires is at least 25 percent below the pressure on the driver’s door-jamb placard. The symbol resembles a tire outline shaped like a horseshoe with an exclamation point inside. A cold night can reduce tire pressure by about one psi for every ten-degree temperature drop, which may trigger the warning. An underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter, so the pressure should be set at the next stop. If the light flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays on, the tire pressure monitoring system itself has a fault, usually involving a sensor whose battery has run down.

What the diagnosis covers at Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria

The service begins with a pressure check of every monitored tire against the placard on the driver’s door jamb. Each tire pressure sensor is scanned for its signal and battery status. The inspection also looks for punctures and leaking valve stems, helping separate a tire that needs air or a repair from a sensor that needs replacement. After sensor or tire work, the system is relearned so the vehicle can recognize the monitored components. This process addresses a light that appears after a temperature change, remains on even though the tires look full, or flashes before staying illuminated. Drivers can schedule service at Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria.
