Regular Tyre Pressure Checks
Checking your Hyundai’s tyre pressure regularly is essential. Especially before long journeys or periods of heavy use.
Incorrect tyre pressures can have a significant impact on the safety and handling of your vehicle.
Under-inflated or over-inflated tyres tend to wear unevenly and more quickly. Which can shorten their lifespan and reduce fuel efficiency.
Aside from performance, properly inflated tyres also provide better comfort and reduce the risk of tyre failure while driving.
