Anyone else experience their LTPWS Light (Low Tire Pressure Warning System) come on after about 20 minutes of highway driving?  Any long drive of more than 20-30 minutes (highway / freeway) and the Low Tire light comes on, and stays on until you shut the truck off. Doesn't seem to be Temp related.

do check ur tires. it might be a broken sensor or low tire pressure. if ur mileage drops then it is caused by low pressure.

If your tires or tire is low you may have the leaky valve stem. I think there is a TSB out on it. Here's a link:

May want to take it to the dealer and have them take a look at it. May be a bad sensor.

These sensors are like the crying baby at a restaurant: NUISANCE. But they can be easily fixed my checking tire pressure, and maybe going about 45lbs in the tires. I myself replaced the tire sensors with regular valve stems. No problems.

I am using my spare in the tire rotation scheme, and that causes my light to come on, but it takes more like an hour.

Mine do exactly what you're describing.  But only when the temp's below 20 or so.  The tire's are all at 40psi so I know that's not the problem.  I just figured it's a quirk in the system.  My wife's Murano does the exact same thing.  What kills me is that she had a tire with a nail in it and only 18psi and the light didn't come on.  I think it's kind of a half-baked system.

I also had the same problem...the dreader cold weather tire light.  I've never found much of an issue with the tire pressure.  My advice is to obviously consider it a possible low pressure situation but don't panic something about cold weather seems to freak the system out
