Hyundai Repair: Code, 2007 hyundai sonata, tire pressure monitoring system


Question
Yesterday while driving home a set of letters appeared on the insturemnt panel of my 2007 Hyundai Sonata.  the letter at TPMS.  Could you please tell me what these letters represent or do the car require immediate attention?

Thanks

Answer
These letters stand for Tire Pressure Monitoring System.  The lamp indicates that something is not operating properly with that system.  If your tires are properly inflated, there's no issue with operating the vehicle-- the system simply won't be able to alert you to a low pressure issue.
