"The hack is already out there, and it's much "simpler" than trying to signal-trick the computers in the car. Google for "TPMS bomb"... it's a small homemade PVC tank (about the size of your fist) with a Schrader valve in one end. Before you glue the thing shut, you toss all 4 of your TPMS sensors into it). After it's dry, you air it up with the Schrader valve to whatever your recommended tire pressure is. Then you toss it in the trunk or cram it under a seat. Car is happy because all 4 sensors are reading the same (correct) pressure... even if you just had 4 blowouts and are careening over a cliff."

THANK YOU, XXL!

Check under the Tread Act.
If your car has TPMS you are not supposed to remove or disable it.
If you do so any accident you're in can been considered your fault.
