The 2020 Toyota Corolla comes equipped with a sophisticated Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that helps ensure optimal tire performance and safety. While the system doesn't directly display tire pressure readings on the dashboard, it provides crucial alerts when tire pressure falls below recommended levels.

Tire Pressure Warning System

The Corolla's TPMS uses sensors in each tire to monitor air pressure. When pressure in one or more tires drops significantly below the recommended level, a warning light illuminates on the dashboard. This light appears as an amber-colored exclamation point within a tire symbol.

Checking Tire Pressure

To check your tire pressure:

  • Use a reliable tire pressure gauge
  • Check pressure when tires are cold
  • Refer to the tire pressure label on the driver's side door jamb for recommended PSI
  • Adjust pressure to match the recommended values

Resetting the Tire Pressure Warning System

After adjusting tire pressure, you may need to reset the TPMS. Here's how:

1. Park the vehicle and turn the engine switch to ON

2. Press the menu control switch on the steering wheel to select the gear icon

3. Press and hold the center button to enter the Vehicle Settings menu

4. Select TPWS (Tire Pressure Warning System)

5. Press and hold the center button until the tire pressure warning light blinks three times

Tire Pressure App Integration

While the 2020 Corolla doesn't display tire pressures directly on the dashboard, Toyota offers a mobile app that can provide this information. The app connects to your vehicle's TPMS sensors via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, allowing you to view real-time tire pressure readings on your smartphone.

App Features:

  • Real-time tire pressure readings
  • Alerts for significant pressure drops
  • Recommended tire pressure information
  • Tire size and wear indicator data

Importance of Proper Tire Pressure

Maintaining correct tire pressure is crucial for:

  • Optimal fuel efficiency
  • Even tire wear
  • Better handling and stability
  • Reduced risk of tire failure

Regular tire pressure checks, even with a TPMS, are recommended to ensure your Corolla performs at its best.
