Apr 2016 6200 mi	TPMS sensors were not working and displayed a constant error. Turned out that their "quick" TPMS set-up for seasonal tire swap does not work and needs to be the full computer reprogramming for the sensors.

Apparently the OEM TPMS sensors are Toyota, and they cause the Subaru computers to weird out some or something…
