A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types – direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating reports of alleged engine failures in GM's 6.2-liter L87 V-8, an engine used in a wide variety of trucks and SUVs.
Take for example a vehicle which had its cold inflation tire pressure set near Denver (altitude 5300 feet), and is descending towards Los Angeles (altitude 300 feet). The tires could become underinflated by as much as 2.5 psi. Cold inflation pressure should therefore be readjusted after any significant changes in altitude.
The Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation or TREAD Act (Pub. L. 106–414 (text)) is a United States federal law enacted in the fall of 2000. .

The GMT 400 and similar GMT 480 was the platform used for the Chevrolet C/K and GMC Sierra full-size pickup trucks beginning with the 1988 model year. [1] The GMT 410, GMT 420, GMT 425, and GMT 430 variants were derived for full-size SUVs, including the 1992–1994 Chevrolet Blazer and 1995–2000 Tahoe, and the GMC Yukon from late 1991 to 2000.
