Frequently asked questions
2018 Dodge Journey Crossroad shown

On a Dodge Journey, the tire pressure light—a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside—means one or more monitored tires may be at least 25 percent below the pressure shown on the driver's door-jamb placard, while a light that flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays on indicates a tire pressure monitoring system fault that needs diagnosis at Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria in Peoria, Arizona, where a complete pressure and sensor check can distinguish a tire needing air or repair from a sensor needing replacement.

Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria provides tire pressure light diagnosis for Dodge Journey models across all model years, helping drivers understand the warning and arrange the appropriate service.

What the tire pressure light means on a Dodge Journey

The warning appears as a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. When it stays steadily illuminated, one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the placard pressure on the driver's door jamb. The pressure should be set at the next stop because an underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter.

A cold night can bring on the light because tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees. If the tires look fully inflated but the light remains on, the pressure still needs to be measured against the placard. A light that flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays illuminated means the monitoring system itself has a fault, usually a sensor whose battery has run down.

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

The diagnosis 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, helping separate low pressure from a monitoring-system concern.

The inspection also looks for punctures and leaking valve stems. After sensor or tire work, the system is relearned so the Dodge Journey can recognize the monitored tires correctly. Drivers noticing the tire outline after a temperature drop, seeing it remain on despite tires that look full, or seeing it flash at startup can schedule service with Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria.
