Its Shop Time Mondays: Chrysler And Dodge Recalling Their 2022 Large Cars

 

Inoperative TPMS Sensor/FMVSS 138

Inoperative TPMS sensors will not alert the driver to low tire pressure. In addition, a TPMS warning light that is already illuminated from a failed battery sensor will mask an actual tire pressure failure issue. Either of these scenarios can result in tire failure and increase the risk of a crash.
