Overinflation can lead to problems as well, but 4 or 5 psi over would not be enough to cause that type of failure.

My last time inflat my tire...I remember the psi is at 2x....not sure why the sensor light up only when it's so low.

How often should I check my tire ? Which level would start harming the tire?

Thanks,

Ricky

With how light the Yaris is, you would need to be at least 10 to 15 PSI over the tire's recommended pressure before you would potentially hurt them.
