When Should TPMS Sensors Be Replaced?
TPMS Sensors typically need to be replaced for one of the following reasons:
- Battery life: TPMS sensor batteries have an estimated lifespan of 5-10 years or 100k miles. If the battery fails, it’s time to replace the sensor unit.
- Damage: Due to their location, TPMS sensors can be damaged by flat tires, accidents, potholes, etc.
- Environment: TPMS sensors may suffer from corrosion, typically due to road salt.
To protect your TPMS sensors
- Avoid road hazards such as potholes and curbs.
- Keep your car battery charged and well-maintained.
- Flat tires can easily damage TPMS sensors. Keep your tires well inflated and maintained to ensure a long life for all tire components.
Note: It typically makes sense to replace all TPMS sensors together to avoid additional tire mounting fees.

FAQ
- How often should TPMS sensors be replaced?
- TPMS sensors should be replaced roughly every 5-10 years or after 100k miles, whichever comes first, or if they show signs of damage or battery failure.
- What can damage TPMS sensors?
- TPMS sensors can be damaged by flat tires, accidents, potholes, and environmental factors like corrosion from road salt.
- Is it necessary to replace all TPMS sensors at once?
- It is often recommended to replace all TPMS sensors at the same time to avoid additional tire mounting fees and to ensure consistent performance.
- How can I extend the life of my TPMS sensors?
- To extend the life of TPMS sensors, avoid road hazards, maintain a well-charged car battery, and keep tires well inflated and in good condition.
