Quick answer

Salazar Roadside Assistance provides mobile air service and TPMS diagnosis across DFW. We set every tire to the pressure on your door placard, look for the leak causing the light, and identify failed or dead TPMS sensors so you know whether it is a leak or a sensor.

Why the light comes on in Texas

Air pressure moves roughly 1 PSI for every 10 degrees of temperature change. The first cold snap after a Texas summer sets off pressure lights across the whole Metroplex on the same morning — often with no leak at all.

A light that will not go out is telling you something

If the light stays on after the tires are correctly inflated, either something is still leaking or a sensor has failed. TPMS sensor batteries are sealed and typically last five to ten years, so on an older vehicle a dead sensor is common.

  • All four tires checked and set to the door placard
  • Spare checked when it is accessible
  • Leak inspection at valve, bead and tread
  • TPMS sensor read and fault identified
  • Difference between a solid light and a flashing light explained
  • Repair performed on the spot when a puncture is the cause

How the call works

  1. 1Call and tell us whether the light is solid or flashing and how the car is driving.
  2. 2We quote the visit and dispatch the nearest technician.
  3. 3Every tire is checked cold and set to the manufacturer's placard pressure.
  4. 4We identify a leak or a failed sensor, and repair the leak on the spot when we can.

Straight answer

Do you service my vehicle?

Yes for cars, SUVs, light trucks, EVs, commercial vans and diesel pickups. No for motorcycles and semis — we say so up front instead of sending a truck that cannot help.

Yes, we service these

  • Electric vehicles. Teslas, hybrids and EVs — 12-volt battery service, tire work and lockouts, handled with the correct jack points and no tow needed for most calls.
  • Commercial vans and fleet trucks. Cargo vans, box trucks and work fleets. Give dispatch the fleet or unit number and we bill the job the same flat way.
  • Diesel and heavy-duty pickups. Commercial-grade jump packs and heavy-duty tire tooling ride on the truck, so a three-quarter-ton diesel is a first-trip job.
  • Cars, SUVs and light trucks. The everyday roadside call — tires, batteries, jump starts, fuel and lockouts, at whatever lot or shoulder you are sitting in.

No, we do not take these

  • Motorcycles. We do not take motorcycle roadside calls. Tell the dispatcher and we will point you to a motorcycle-equipped operator instead of sending a truck that cannot help.
  • Semi tractors and heavy equipment. Class 8 trucks, trailers and construction equipment need heavy-duty recovery, which is a different trade and a different truck.

While you wait

What to do while you wait

Read this before you get out of the car. It is the same guidance our dispatchers give on the phone.

  1. 1Get off the travel lane if the vehicle still movesAim for the right shoulder, an exit ramp or the nearest lot. A car sitting in a live lane on I-35W or LBJ is the single most dangerous place to wait.
  2. 2Hazards on, wheels turned away from trafficTurn on your hazard lights before you do anything else, and point the front wheels away from the road so a struck vehicle does not roll into traffic.
  3. 3Get out on the passenger side and stand behind the barrierIf you leave the vehicle, exit away from traffic and wait behind the guardrail or well up the embankment — never between your car and oncoming traffic, and never in front of the vehicle.
  4. 4Stay buckled inside if there is no safe place to standOn a narrow shoulder or a bridge deck, staying belted inside with hazards on is safer than standing outside. Tell the dispatcher so the technician knows where you are.
  5. 5Make yourself visible at nightDome light on, phone flashlight facing traffic, reflective triangle or flare well behind the vehicle if you carry one. Most of our overnight calls happen in poor lighting.
  6. 6Call 911 first for injuries, fire, a blocked lane or a child or pet locked insideEmergency services outrank roadside service in those situations. Call 911, then call us for the vehicle itself.

Answers

TPMS & Air Service questions, answered

Why is my tire pressure light on when the tires look fine?

Tires can be 8-10 PSI low and still look normal. A cold morning after a hot week is the single most common cause in DFW.

What does a flashing TPMS light mean?

A flashing light for a minute at start-up usually means a sensor fault, not a pressure problem. A solid light means at least one tire is under pressure.

Can you replace a dead TPMS sensor?

We diagnose the sensor and tell you which one has failed. Replacement requires dismounting the tire, which we handle on site where the wheel allows.

What pressure should my tires be?

Use the placard in the driver's door jamb, not the number on the tire sidewall — that one is a maximum, not a recommendation.

Do you fill tires with nitrogen?

We use compressed air. Topping a nitrogen-filled tire with air is safe and does not damage anything.
