Flats, blow outs, skids and longer stopping distances can all be the result of Carlisle drivers driving around ON on under-inflated tires. Now, it’s hard to tell when a radial tire is under-inflated but your BATES AND GREEN GARAGE service advisor can help you. The tire may not look low until it gets below 9 kilograms – which is significantly under-inflated.
Your newer vehicle or light truck might be equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). This technology has been used by ON race car drivers for years. They are able to head off problems from under inflation by closely monitoring tire pressure on the track.
Obviously, TMPS systems don’t come free for Carlisle car buyers. Studies have estimated the net costs of the TPMS system itself, maintaining the system, replacement of worn or broken parts and tire repair cost increases. The costs are partially offset for Carlisle drivers by savings in fuel and tire wear. There’s also a saving in pricey property damage and travel delay for Carlisle drivers. The net cost is estimated to be between $27 and $100.
The government predicts fewer fatal accidents. They estimate that is will cost between three and nine million dollars for every life saved. This newer safety equipment will help Carlisle motorists avoid the most common vehicle failure, and possibly a catastrophic accident.
