What Happened
Your vehicle's tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) might not be working because of a problem when the body control module was replaced at a dealership.
Risk if Unfixed
If your TPMS is not working, you won't get a warning if your tires are underinflated, which can lead to a crash.
Free Fix
You should take your vehicle to the dealership for a free inspection to check and reactivate the TPMS if needed. This is a free service, and you can contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261 for more information.
