The TPMS under inflation warning lights came on and will not go off. There not a tire inflation problem. This is an ongoing sensor and software problem with Civics. The car was sold to me without notifying me of these ongoing problems. The J.L. freed service manager is unaware of the software upgrade now available, and the recall on the tires leaking from bad beads.
The car was two weeks old when the tire pressure monitoring system warning light came on while traveling at highway speed. There was no problem with the tire pressure. The car has been in the service shop on 3 occasions for a total of six and one half days and the problem is not resolved. As of 6/4/14, Honda indicates that the computer is not reading the tire pressure correctly and that they are not able to fix it.they say may have a solution sometime in July 2014. The warning light continues to come on at random intervals and various speeds, making the warning system useless.
