Yes, but:
Only on RHD cars, on the 2nd Tuesday, of the 3rd month, during leap year.

So we should use the same air they use in train tires?? Can that be used all year round?

And another thing....

Spring is right around the corner so don't forget to reverse your battery cables so that the A/C comes on instead of the heat.

Consider methane as an alternative.. It reduces tire weight, increases fuel economy and lasts much longer than nitrogen.. Really great for fallout too

I change the air in my tires whenever the maintenance minder tells me to, just like my oil

Gary, whenever my tires need refilled, I take a road trip up to the Ford factory in Flat Rock MI just to make certain they always have nothing but the original/factory air in them.. "Dilly Dilly"
