Watch this video.

A good TPMS will alarm for over temp as well as over pressure.

By the time we find out withou a TPMS it's too late.

What was the robot doing that started this chemical reaction? I couldn't tell in the video.

Thanks!

The Robot was Welding. But other things can cause the problem, like locked brakes, or using a torch to loosen lug nuts.

Very good. I need to share that video. Education is the keyword in prevention.
Thanks.

You can't put into words the level of comfort you have with a TPMS as you run down the road being able to see the pressure and temperatures fluxuate with your speed and road conditions. I never imagined the difference between cold and hot tires.
