Why does my Ford app say my tire pressure is normal when every tire is showing 40psi to 42psi?
Does the vehicle need reset or the app?
The tires are at 31 and 32psi
I just picked up my Bronco Sport about 2 weeks ago

Thanks for your help in advance

I have read that they ship cars with extra tire pressure from the factory. Dealers aren’t setting them at the suggested pressure. Had to let air out of our tires. I assume it would not be normal if a couple were way off.

Tire dealers tend to overinflate tires especially in areas that see cold temperatures. They are tired of people bringing in their vehicles for a low tire warning light when temperatures drop.

My gauge vs the screen had a 4 PSI difference. I stick with the gauge. I've had it for many a year, said the ole man, so that's what I trust. I also find the KO2's increase by 4-5 PSI once they get hot. It reminds me of scuba diving. If you are at 100 ft you can exhale all the way to the surface. Don't need to take a breath.

Living in MN, I have to adjust air pressure all the time. Varying temps from Summer to Winter. Though the dash on my Raptor is pretty accurate to a gauge. I just recently had to let some air out, brought all 4 tires down to about 37.5 psi, dash reads 38. And since I'm running BFG AT KO2s as well, depending on the outside air temp I generally only see 2-3 psi rise as they warm up. 38 psi cold, run 40-41 psi hot.

The tire pressure on mine is not consistent either. I have talked to the service advisor about during service and can't get a real answer on why tire pressures are like.
