Recently my tire was low. Filled it up and a day later it was lower. Uh, oh got a bad leak. Fill it up and take it to a shop. Shop said tire has a small slice and can't be patched.
They put on my spare and sent me on my way. Life did not allow me the time to stick around and wait for a tire. Again, life has kept me from getting a new tire. Monday. I've lined one up for Monday.
Ok so here's the scenario: start truck and low air thingy rings and says I have a low tire in the location of the fully inflated spare. Tire 4. Check old tire hanging under the truck (tire 5) and it reads the same number on my guage as the dashboard says the one on the truck is.
Drive to work and alarm rings and says pressure sensor failed. Get to work, turn off truck. Turn it back on and the dash thinks all four are full now. It's reading the sensor on the spare now but…… 5 miles down the road and the pressure sensor fail alarm rings again.
It's as if the vehicle thinks tire 5 is located on the hub at times and other times it thinks tire 4 is located on the hub. Then at times it thinks there aint a tire with a sensor at all on the hub. It's a Ford. Guy at the Ford dealer said the spare does not have a sensor.
My boss told me his wife's Honda does the same thing.
Anybody else ever have this issue?
