How do I check the tire pressure in a Nissan Sentra?

The front right tire of my 2021 Nissan Sentra looks slightly lower than the others. How do I check its tire pressure?

Keeping the right amount of pressure in your tires is essential. To check the tire pressure in a Nissan Sentra, use the tire pressure monitoring screen on your vehicle’s digital display. For older cars that aren’t equipped with a display screen, you can use a tire pressure gauge on the tire’s valve stem.
Newer models are equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system that will notify you with a “low pressure” light on the gauge cluster when the tire pressure is below a certain threshold.
Improperly inflated tires mean your tires can’t do their job. If you drive with underinflated tires, it could result in the following:
  • Changes to vehicle handling
  • Decreased fuel efficiency
  • Increases the risk of a tire puncture
  • Increases the risk of a tire blowout
If you’re not keen on dealing with tire troubles, check your tire pressure as part of your
regular maintenance schedule
. And on top of keeping your Nissan well-maintained, consider getting a
car insurance
policy that also has
roadside assistance
.
