The 2022 Ford Maverick XL comes equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system. This system alerts the driver if it detects that the tires are under a certain pressure. The tire pressure monitoring system uses sensors to measure when the car is in motion and parked, reporting the data to a computer module for analysis. If one or more of your tires drops below the recommended PSI, you will receive an alert on the dashboard.
Armed with this information, you can check your tires to see if they need air. A tire can lose pressure in several ways: driving over a pothole or speed bump could force some air out of the tire. Using your car to tow something can also cause pressure loss as you pull on the tires since they support extra weight and stress. Any impact – even just driving over a rough road – can cause some unevenness in your tire treads, which means less contact with the road and, therefore, less pressure to keep you safe.
The tire pressure monitoring system is not intended to replace regular maintenance; it is just an added safety feature that helps alert drivers when there might be an issue with their tires.
