TIA releases TPMS safety video for consumers

July 11, 2013

The Tire Industry Association (TIA) has released “Tire Safety Starts With TPMS,” the second in a series of four consumer education videos planned for 2013.

The video gives a five-minute overview of tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS), emphasizing the safety benefits of a system that warns the driver when one or more of their tires are underinflated.

TIA’s first consumer education video, “Tire Safety Starts With Proper Tire Repair,” was released in March and has had over 3,200 views on the organization’s YouTube channel, www.youtube.com/tiresafetystartshere.   

The new TPMS consumer education video is available on the YouTube channel and Google+ under the same name.

“Our technician training programs continue to be the backbone of the Association, so the addition of consumer education videos compliments our areas of expertise and supports the concept of improving tire safety," says Randy Groh, TIA president.

All of TIA’s consumer education videos are available for free download, reproduction, rebroadcast, and distribution. Companies are also encouraged to provide direct links to the videos on the YouTube or Google+ channels.
