That doesn't work anymore. I drove around for a bit to try to get tire pressures to show up and it seems the only way to see them is to tap the car icon, and then search down the big list of categories until you find Service, and then tap that, and then you get a display which finally shows your tire pressures, and covers the entire map. It's f$%king asinine. Same thing with odometer and trip odometer.

Thanks for your report. That means among other things, the update also broke the tire pressure voice command! Very very bad!!!!
Very bad indeed, overall V11 has a couple nice welcomed features but the new UI is terrible.
Essential stuff is buried deeper than before and the cartoon looking icon makes it look cheap.

They really messed up lot of users friendly options. Seems like they were high on drug who approved it.
It's annoying because the pressure only shows up when driving. If you are parked, you don't see it. They need to fix this ASAP
I really don’t know what this tire pressure obsession is all about, but I’m pretty sure there’s a medical treatment for it.
I just found out that the tire pressure disappears once you open the charging port. I guess this is a bug.
It's not an obsession, it's Gay-Lussac's law. Temperature and pressure have a close relationship. Since I live in Canada, the cold weather makes the pressure drop significantly. I was trying to put some pressure to my tires today at home but could not see what the reading was on the car.
This has always been the case. The pressure sensors have a roll switch or accelerometer in them and only activate once in motion. This is done to enable a decent battery life in the sensors. It is also used to locate the sensor on the correct side if the car.
Removing the ability to view it from the main screen is a ridiculous change. I use tire pressure monitor all the time. There is no spare tire in this car, and most times you find out that there's attack in your tire is by losing pressure.

I deliberately overfill my tires (in my comfortable garage, of course) and then let pressure out to a desirable level, such as 50 lbs. This should still be good when the winter temp cools the air, but I can still check ONE tire (after I know they are all the same) to see what they sit at in the outside air. Tire pressure also increases as the tire rotates and flexes, so it's a balancing act, but once the tire pressures are all the same, it doesn't matter a whole bunch.

I learned the same this morning. Two days ago the voice prompt worked..today nothing.
