• The alert and Tire Pressure indicator light may still be present immediately after you have filled your tires to the
recommended cold pressure, but both should clear once you have driven a short distance.
• You may need to drive over 15 mph (25 km/h) for at least 10 minutes for the Tire Pressure Monitoring System to
measure and report your updated tire pressures.
If you repeatedly see this alert for the same tire, have the tire inspected for a slow leak. You can visit a local tire shop
or schedule service using your Tesla Mobile App.
For more information on tire pressure and inflation, see Tire Care and Maintenance on page 169.

Air pressure in tires very low
PULL OVER SAFELY - Check for flat tire
This alert indicates that one or more of the tires on your vehicle is extremely low or flat.
The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) has detected that the air pressure in one or more of your tires is
significantly lower than the recommended cold tire pressure.
You should pull over carefully as soon as possible. In a safe location, check for a flat tire.
You can request Tesla roadside assistance options (mobile tire, loaner wheel, tow) if required. See Contacting Tesla
Roadside Assistance on page 203 for more information.
In a non-emergency situation, it is recommended that you visit a local tire shop for assistance or schedule service
using your Tesla Mobile App.
See Maintaining Tire Pressures on page 169 for detailed information on where to find the recommended cold
pressure (RCP) for your vehicle's tires, how to check tire pressures, and how to keep your tires properly inflated.
The alert should clear once the Tire Pressure Monitoring System has a consistent tire pressure measurement for each
of your tires of at least 30 psi.
