 Soon after our purchase, 6/07, the light came on, its been back to many different dealers over a dozen times,,.it cannot be disconnected, disengaged. reprogramming is one option, replacing at $150/visit per wheel is the other option. we have had both on multiple occasions. our problem is, that the sensor when it fails, tells the tire to reduce pressure. a perfectly good tire filled with 37 psi will in 24 hours come down to 20 psi... this is a disaster and i am surprised there has been no class action law suits... i have spent time and money, replaced tires to prove the point, and after almost 6 years am ready to give up... something so simple and stupid cannot be fixed or removed.. nissan dealers blame it on pot holes, corrosion, or bad manufactured tires. american roads are filled with these perils and the system designed by nissan is a failure because it cannot stand up... i own 9 other vehicles made after 2007 and not of the others have had any problems like this.. *tr

 We were traveling on the interstate when we noticed the car started shaking then a loud pop was heard. fortunately my daughter maintained control of the car and guided to the median safely. when we got out we saw that the tire had shredded away from the tube about half way around.. *tr

 The tpms system in my 2007 versa has stopped working properly. it has failed and came on with the tire pressure fine. i have taken it to a dealer and they told me the first time that i had one tire that was 1lb low and that it would shut off within the next 5 miles or so/. it did to come back on in 10 miles. i have talked to them several times and they tell me that they will put it on their machine to test it for $45. *tr

 The tpms light comes on though tires are properly inflated. manufacturer's instructions for reset do not work. i've had it to the dealer twice for this problem. they reset it, after implying that after 40+ years of driving, i don't know how to inflate a tire. after awhile it comes on again. *tr

 Tire pressure monitoring system light keeps turning on, even if all the tire pressure are within specs. *tr

 Continuing problems with the tire pressure monitoring system light staying on despite correcting the tire pressure. this seems to be a problem with many nissan versa 2007 owners and should be addressed by the manufacturer in a recall. already had one trip to the dealer for correction at 3500 miles. incident date should read november 21, 207--latest incident of tpms light staying on despite corrected action taken. *nm

 Tire pressure monitoring system (tpms) installed on the vehicle, per new nhtsa regulations, has failed multiple times with a fault condition displayed on the dash light. nissan dealer does not have a permanent fix, they just reregister the sensors which is only a temporary fix. initial failure on this vehicle occurred at 4216 miles and was re-registered, and failed again at approximately 5400 miles. failure prevents tpms system from functioning correctly - it reports an error when all tires are ok, and the continuous error effectively disables the system for its intended purpose. *nm

 Purchased 2007 nissan versa, includes the tire pressure monitoring systems (tpms) as required by the nhtsb. in the first 2,000 miles of ownership, the system has falsely triggered twice. in both cases, tire pressures were per specification. nissan dealer found no mechanical issues, either with the tires themselves or with the tpms system. *jb

 I, along with many other versa owners have experienced the failure of the tire pressure monitoring system. apparently,there is no permanent fix yet available,thus rendering the tpms useless.

 The tire pressure monitoring sysytem on my 2007 nissan versa continually shows a fault when the tire pressure is actually correct on all 4 tires.

 The tire pressure monitor system, or tpms, on the 2007 nissan versa that i, and many, many others own, keeps failing. the tpms light on the dash will blink and then stay steady on, which nissan, in the manual, says is a fault has occurred in the tpms monitor system and you have to take to the dealer for repair. nissan dealers have no fix and it is a cause of great concern. i have already had this problem 'fixed' once at 1100 miles and then problem recurred at around 2000 miles. for a better understanding of how wide spread this issue is, please see http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/203231 and http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/197348 i've contacted nissan and was told that this is a dealer problem. the dealer doesn't know how to fix it and is waiting on nissan. my concern is that my tpms light stays on and it is not doing me any good. i have no way to tell if a tire is going flat while moving because the system is completely useless in the car. *nm
