maybe they killed the sensors? Or they didnt put them back in?

IF you want the system dead you need to move the sensors away from your car for a long time. like 15 min.

If you're getting the warning, (yellow exclamation mark inside what looks like a tire)check the tire pressures. Tire dealers sometimes overinflate. If they're not working you should be getting dashes.

If your tire pressure sensors are not reading correctly, re-setting them can be done by following:

If this does not work, take the car back to the tire installer and make them correct the problem. If they cannot fix the problem, they may have damaged one or more during their install.

If none of these corrects the issue, please explain in greater detail the issue.
Good luck.

It sounds like they have just over inflated the tires. Check the pressure with a gauge and just let some air out untill you get it were you want it. When I picked my car up from putting two tires on the back, one read 25lbs the other was 37lbs. Easily fixable but its like, I was just at a tire shop were these people so this for a living. How hard is to put the right amount of air in a tire? I guess thats why they work at tire shops!
