I have a 2012 Screw XLT 5.0. I was told it had a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) standard. I just changed over my tires to winter tires on new rims without the TPMS and no light came on in the dash indicating a low or flat tire. Is a TPMS. Can anyone advise if a light should come in?

Thanks. In Honda the TPMS comes on right away if a tire goes low. Driven 20 miles without a TPMS in the tire and the light still hasn't come on. Nice to see Ford is looking out for my safety. Lol
I check my tire pressure ever month but the system is designed to inform the drive as your are travelling a tire is going flat so you can stop and check. This system came into existence shortly after the Ford Exploder where rolling over because of tire blowouts.

I check my tire pressure regularly. The TPMS in my 2010 is crap. My wifes Samsung Galaxy sets off the TPMS while it in the truck charging... no *****!!. So I hope the 2011+ have better TPMS systems. I wish I could turn mine off as well .Maybe next truck will be better...

I have 2012 Screw and have put on snow tires without the TPMS in them. It takes the light almost 100 km before the light comes on. I store the original tires in my garage and park the truck outside. The light goes out ever time I park the truck in my driveway. This system is crap. I always check my tires on a monthly bases.
Hope no one is relying on this system.
