You can plug your zip code in and let Tire Rack tell you who they recommend for wheel service in your area.

No problem. Nice to have that available even when you aren't buying anything from them. It at least gives you a starting point of potential places with phone numbers and some even have reviews. You can call around instead of running around to find what you need. Hope it works out for you!

Wheel sorry to say moose but none of the recommended shops near could really mess with the tpms so I had to go out to long island to this shop I seen advertise on craigslist and problem solve had a bad sensor on rear tire, sold me a new one, installed it, programmed it all for 130 and less than an hour. Feels good to have me dash board back to normal with out the flashing and warning lights going off

I guess the good news is that you are good to go now. And definitely cheaper than dealing with the dealership!

A lil fyi about the tpms if the yellow icon comes on and stays on that means you need air in one of your tires, but if the icon is flashing that means you need a new sensor
