Low Tire Pressure Warning

The Low Tire Pressure Warning (LTPW) system uses a sensor in the tyre to detect leaks and maintain a safe level of air pressure in your tyres. The LTPW light will illuminate if it detects an abnormal drop in air pressure. This can happen if your car has been sitting for a long time without being driven or if you have a flat tyre that needs to be replaced.

Oxygen Sensor Malfunction

The oxygen sensor monitors your engine's fuel and controls ignition timing based on the amount of oxygen in the exhaust.

If this sensor fails, the engine will continuously misfire and the check engine light will illuminate. The problem will most likely manifest as random misfires or stalling, but if you run out of gas for more than a few seconds, it's time to see a mechanic.
