Tires 100 mi 2 mo in service
THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSYTEM ON MY 2007 NISSAN VERSA CONTINUALLY SHOWS A FAULT WHEN THE TIRE PRESSURE IS ACTUALLY CORRECT ON ALL 4 TIRES.
Tires 2,450 mi 2 mo in service
I, ALONG WITH MANY OTHER VERSA OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE OF THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM. APPARENTLY,THERE IS NO PERMANENT FIX YET AVAILABLE,THUS RENDERING THE TPMS USELESS.
Tires 4,216 mi 0 mo in service
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) INSTALLED ON THE VEHICLE, PER NEW NHTSA REGULATIONS, HAS FAILED MULTIPLE TIMES WITH A FAULT CONDITION DISPLAYED ON THE DASH LIGHT. NISSAN DEALER DOES NOT HAVE A PERMANENT FIX, THEY JUST "REREGISTER" THE SENSORS WHICH IS ONLY A TEMPORARY FIX. INITIAL FAILURE ON THIS VEHICLE OCCURRED AT 4216 MILES AND WAS "RE-REGISTERED", AND FAILED AGAIN AT APPROXIMATELY 5400 MILES. FAILURE PREVENTS TPMS SYSTEM FROM FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY - IT REPORTS AN ERROR WHEN ALL TIRES ARE OK, AND THE CONTINUOUS ERROR EFFECTIVELY DISABLES THE SYSTEM FOR ITS INTENDED PURPOSE. *NM
