Zusammenfassung:This disclosure generally pertains to systems and methods related to tire air pressure notifications. An example method that can be executed by a processor in a vehicle can include detecting a tire inflation operation performed upon a wheel of the vehicle and determining that air is escaping out of a tire of the wheel of the vehicle during the tire inflation operation. The processor may then issue an alert based on determining that air is escaping out of the tire. The alert may be provided in various ways such as, for example, via a haptic signal transmitted through a vibration element located in the wheel of the vehicle and/or by waggling the wheel of the vehicle. In an example implementation, waggling the wheel of the vehicle may be carried out by the processor by operating a steering wheel control system of the vehicle.
