ABSTRACT:
A method for alarming decrease in tire air-pressure in which decrease in tire air-pressure is determined on the basis of rotational velocity information of a wheel of a vehicle. Respective thresholds for determining whether judgment of decrease in tire air-pressure is to be made or not are changed depending on magnitude of driving torque of the vehicle when the vehicle is performing turning movements. It is possible to improve the detection accuracy without issuing an erroneous alarm even in the case where a large driving force is applied when the vehicle is, for instance, running on a climbing road or when it performs trailer towing.
