That's the TPMS icon - if means that either the system is malfunctioning, or that you have a tire that is underinflated. Double check to make sure you have the correct pressure in all of your tires.

That happened to me a few weeks ago. It means on of your tires is under inflated. get out a psi meter and make sure each tire is right around 35psi. If it is really cold in your area this sometimes happens.

I need to replace my tires though. Still got the factory ones on.

When I took off the regular tires and put on my snows the tire light came on.When I put the regular tires back on the dealers told me I had to pare the TPMS to the car for $45.I was lucky – the tires pared themselves.The paring of the tires might of come undone – you my need them to get pared again.
