When it comes to Toyota tires, we are your one-stop shop! Apart from replacement, this also includes rotations, alignment services, and more. If you schedule tire services at our dealership, you may have some questions. Here are some of the inquiries we get most often from customers like yourself. 

  1. Which Dashboard Light Indicates a Tire Problem?

The tire dashboard light icon is an exclamation mark enclosed within a horseshoe-like shape. If this icon lights up, there is low pressure on one or more tires. 

  1. What’s the Recommended PSI for My Tires?

You can find the recommended psi for the factory tires in two places: the vehicle user manual and on the driver’s side of the door jamb. Do not confuse the recommended psi with the maximum psi. The latter is listed directly on the tire. 

  1. The Mechanic Recommend a Rotation; Why Do I Need This?

The mechanic will recommend a rotation if the tires aren’t evenly worn. If the rear tires are more worn than the front tires or vice versa, it can negatively impact tire gripping and traction. 

  1. Does the Spare Tire Require Maintenance?

Check the spare tire pressure once a month when you check the normal tires. The spare tire gradually loses air even though it’s not in use. You should also practice changing to the spare tire if you never had to do this in an actual scenario.  

  1. Do New Tires Come with a Warranty?

All tires purchased from our dealership come with road hazard coverage replacement, good for 24 months. If the tire sustains damage, the warranty covers the entire cost of replacement and installation.
