Today, I test drove a used car. I was happy with it. Good mileage. Good price for what it was. Decided to buy it. Got all the paperwork taken care of. Drove it home.
Half way home, the tire pressure gague turned on. The test drive, nothing was amiss. But now the tire pressure gauge is on.
They also told me they'd just replaced the tires. So either they didn't fill them enough or there's something wrong with the tires or sensors.
Bleh.
Was it raining when you drove it home? Used to have a car (I think '04 or '14 Alero) that was notorious for getting fucky when the wiring harness in the front tire(s) got wet. I don't remember what warning it set off, but replacing the wires was only a short-term solution because all it took was a good rain for it to get fucked up again.
