Just as in any other safety system in your car, the tire pressure monitoring system can fail to notify you of danger. Sensors are subject to failure, so are tire pressure indicator lights on your dash. Most tire pressure monitoring systems inform you of low tire pressures when the tire is 25% lower than the recommended pressure.

You should personally monitor your tire pressure at least once per month with an accurate air pressure gauge. The tire pressure monitor system is not designed as a cure-all solution to tire woes. The system will fail you eventually—all systems do...

At Earthycars, we have the experience to help you select your replacement tires. Did you know that tires come in three major categories? You can choose normal passenger tires that are often referred to as summer tires, all-season tires, and winter tires.

Summer tires give the smoothest, quietest ride and may offer the best handling in rain or shine because they have fewer, narrower grooves and softer rubber. This means more rubber gripping the road. However, in cold weather, the rubber stiffens and the lack of grooves become a liability in the snow.

Seasonal maintenance during the fall is key to making sure your vehicle runs at its highest possible level throughout the colder seasons. When autumn arrives, call Earthycars, and you can make an appointment for your vehicle's seasonal maintenance. We’ll rotate your tires and inflate them properly, as well as provide you with the brake service, alignments, filter changes, and more that are necessary to keep your car running.
