Spark ABS and Steering Issues

I'm having trouble with my 2016 Chevy Spark with a gasoline engine. The tire pressure low warning light keeps coming on, the ABS lamp lights up, and the steering wheel vibrates like crazy! It's also harder to steer, like the power steering is failing. I checked the tire pressure with a gauge, and it seems fine. What could be going on? It's got about 37000 km on the clock. I'm so stressed!

Summary of the thread

A 2016 Chevy Spark is experiencing issues with the tire pressure warning light, ABS lamp, and steering wheel vibration, suggesting potential power steering failure. Despite checking tire pressure, the problem persists. A possible cause identified is a defective tire valve, which can lead to a slow leak. The recommended solution is to have the valve checked and replaced at a workshop, which resolved the issue.

I had similar symptoms on my Spark. Have you checked the valve in the tire itself? Sometimes they can be defective and cause a slow leak.

A defective valve? How would I check that? I'm not really a car expert, so any pointers would be appreciated!

The easiest way is to take it to a workshop. They can quickly identify a faulty valve. It sounds like that could very well be the issue.

I took it to the shop, and you were right – it was a defective valve in the tire! Cost me 280€ to get it sorted. Appreciate the help!
