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. .
