Yes, Tire & Lube Express should be exact same in most locales.

It's called ACC now for Auto Care Center, Same thing as TLE. Some Toyotas with a full size spare usually have 5 sensors which is annoying. Bartec is the brand we have at our local Walmart

You get an annoying light on the dash all the time. Plus the risk of death from an underinflated tire blowing out.

The death of you or a family member is annoying too when they get into a rollover accident going around a curve at 60 mph with an unknown underinflated tire.

When one sensor goes bad, the others aren't far behind. Common brands for sensor replacement are Dill and Shrader. Any reputable tire chain in Florida can do it. Try Tire Kingdom.

A little dramatic, aren't we? Manual tire pressure gauges do still exist.

I agree, a little dramatic
But let's not forget the main reason why we have TPMS to deal with now

If Walmart is swapping sensors @ $5 each, I feel swindled that I paid $20 each

Consider an Autel TPMS tool and some ready to program Schrader TPMS sensors off RockAuto for ~$20 each
