When you inflate the tires to the recommended inflation pressures, the factory-installed wheels and tires are designed in order to handle loads to the tire's rated load capacity. Incorrect tire pressures, or under-inflated tires, can cause the following conditions:
Inspect the tire pressure when the following conditions apply:
Inspect the tires monthly or before any extended trip. Adjust the tire pressure to the specifications on the tire label. Install the valve caps or the extensions on the valves. The caps or the extensions keep out dust and water.
The kilopascal (kPa) is the metric term for pressure. The tire pressure may be printed in both kilopascal (kPa) and psi. One psi equals 6.9 kPa.

Tires with a higher than recommended pressure can cause the following conditions:
Tires with a lower than recommended pressure can cause the following conditions:
Unequal pressure on the same axle can cause the following conditions:

Drive Range, First Gear Engine Braking (Gen 1)
When the gear selector lever is moved to the Drive (D) range from the Neutral
(N) position, the transmission will provide engine braking. In this operating range,
the normally-low 1234 pressure control solenoid 5 is commanded ON and, in the engine
braking mode, the following changes occur with ...
Drive Range, Second Gear (Gen 1)
As vehicle speed increases and operating conditions become appropriate, the transmission
control module (TCM) processes input signals from the automatic transmission input
and output speed sensors, the throttle position sensor and other vehicle sensors
to determine the precise moment to comman ...
