PCM guru's enter please...
I know these car try to be really smart, but here's a question, if you have 3 tires that are low on tire pressure will you get "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" and/or maybe "SERVICE TRACTION SYSTEM" "TRACTION SYSTEM FAILURE" or something like that?

If the PCM thinks that any ONE of your tires is at 0 PSI, you will receive a 'REDUCED ENGINE POWER' AND 'REDUCED HANDLING' message on your DIC. This happened to me the other night when I started my vette after it was outside for 6 hours at 40 degrees. I stopped at a filling station to see if the tire was indeed 0 PSI, it wasn't so I restarted and everything was fine.
