What's the correct tyre pressure for my vehicle?

Tyre pressure varies according to a number of factors, such as speed, temperature, load, and wheel size, and should be checked regularly and before any trip.

Where to Find Your Pressure Specifications

You can find the exact PSI (Pounds per Square Inch) or Bar ratings for your vehicle in two places:

1. The Tyre Information Label: Open the driver’s door and look at the B-pillar (this is the vertical metal bar where the door latches). You will see a sticker listing the recommended pressures for your front and rear tyres.
2. Your Owner's Manual: Look for the "Tyre Pressures" or "Wheels and Tyres" section in your digital or physical manual.

Pro-Tips for Accurate Readings

• Check when "Cold": For the most accurate results, check your tyres in the morning or after the vehicle has been parked for at least three hours. Driving heats the air inside the tyres and provides an inaccurate reading.
• Heavy Loads: If you are towing a trailer or carrying a full car of passengers, your manual may recommend a higher pressure. Always check the "Heavy Load" column on your sticker.
• Aftermarket Wheels: The pressures on the sticker only apply to the original wheels and tyres fitted to your Ford. If you have changed your wheels to a different size, please consult your tyre specialist.

If you have any concerns about the tyre pressure of your vehicle, please contact your local Ford Dealer.
