The car is a 2005 Crossfire. Forgot to check under the door rubber seal, I'll check that when I see it again. The only issue that I could see was the tire pressure idiot light was on. Owner explain that it's been like that for a while and to repair was roughly $85 per wheel stem valve. Owner also mention that the crank sensors were replaced and a new battery about four months ago. Will be taking it to my Indy to have the car checked all good I'm ready to go. Could anyone please elaborate on the recall window, or recall if it's still in place and any advice on the low tire pressure stem valve idiot light. Thanks again for all your help guys/girls. Rich
Rich,
With TPMS first thing check that the pressure is correct. When I bought my 2004 XF last year I had the same problem. My son checked the pressure telling me it was OK. NOT, he thought it should be about 28pps. Not so, the front should be 32 and the rear 33 Try this first. I brought my tires up to the proper pressure and the light went out never to return. UNTIL, the cold weather came, pressure went down light came on. check this out first. Your problem just might be low pressure. Maybe not. Worth a shot.
