| April 9, 2014

flat tireWhile 96 percent of drivers consider under inflated tires a serious safety issue and 89 percent think properly inflated tires and an automatic warning system could save their life, a new national survey finds 42 percent of drivers still can’t accurately identify the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) dashboard warning symbol.

The study was conducted on behalf of Schrader International, a leading global manufacturer of sensing and valve solutions.

Recognizing the disconnect between what drivers consider crucial to their driving safety and their ability to recognize the important tire pressure warning symbol, Schrader, along with OEM car manufacturers, aftermarket service and repair leaders, and state and federal governments, are helping to further educate drivers on the importance of TPMS via a variety of supportive routes.
