So today while commuting home from work, I got halfway home from an approx 100km drive, and got a sudden TPMS warning ⚠. When I checked the tire pressure via the Sync display, it had absolutely no reading whatsoever for the right rear tire, and just displayed ---. I managed to pull over to the side of the highway to check the tire, but it seemed perfectly fine to me.

So I'm wondering since this is a 2021 model, how long does the internal battery last in the TPMS sensor before the TPMS in the tire needs to be replaced?

Also, and I don't believe in coincidences.. but when I finally got home and pulled into the garage, I noticed that my proximity sensors and (all) cameras seemed to stop working. I got no beeping at all as I got close to objects or walls in the garage, and the cameras all displayed as black.

Any suggestions as to what might have caused this, and what might be wrong?

@Ford Motor Company or @Ford of Canada or anyone else with access to Ford systems, my VIN is below if you can take a peek at what might be going on?:

Update:

So this morning when taking the kids to school I noticed the cameras (all of them) and proximity sensors were still not working as I pulled out of the garage. The right rear tire sensor was also not detected. However halfway through my trip, I noticed they all came back online again. Tire sensor was now detected, and cameras and proximity were all working now.

Still no idea what caused this, and it's pretty bizarre when combined with one single tire sensor, since I would assume if the TPMS module in the car was glitching, they would all be disconnected, particularly if thisbwas somehow related to the modules used for cameras, and proximity sensors.

In any case last night I tried a couple fo Sync resets to no avail, and today if things were still not working I was going to try disconnecting the 12v battery for a while to reset the vehicle. But glad it's working now, but would really like to understand the root cause of this issue.

I'd look to see if there are any OBDC codes before disconnecting the battery.
