Tire Pressure Monitor Reset

It seems anytime the tire pressure monitoring system goes into "alarm mode" (low air) I'm left with a malfunction reading "tire pressure monitoring reactivate". The end result being a trip back to the dealer. Any quick fixes out there?

No need to go to the dealer. Just push in the little black post on the lower left of the instrument panel while you are in the tire pressure screen. It will give you a "yes" or "no" prompt to reactivate the TPMS. Toggle to "yes" with the up/down arrow buttons on the right side of your steering wheel. After you drive around for a few miles, it will reset the system. This has to be done every time you start the car if you have low tire pressure, and also every time you put air in (or let air out of) your tires. These instructions should be in your owner's manual also. Good luck!

You can reset yourself. Can't remember exactly so check manual. I know you have to press "+" on right side and reset on panel once you're in the right menu. After that it will take several miles of driving to reactivate tpms.

Your dealer should have explained this all to you.
