Hello

I have a follow up question to my earlier post. To recap: I had a recent mishap that caused me to go over a median and I ended up blowing both my right 2 tires. I had to replace both tires and get 1 new wheel.

I just remembered that as soon as the mishap occurred, the light indicating low tire pressure did *not* come on. After I drove for about .25 miles, stopped, put on the spare did the tire pressure light come on. Is this normal? Perhaps the tire pressure sensor only comes on after a few miles of driving with a bad tire and it didn't have enough time?

Thanks.
