Her tire pressure is already close to the point where it will come on, and
the cold makes the tires "flatter", if you will, so the pressure sensor goes
off.

I have mine here in 16 degree NYC weather, and its not done it once.

So, it must be the pressure in the tires are already low-ish, and the cold
takes it to the point where it comes on.

Check the air pressure and go from there...

Hello folks,

I have a relative who also has a 2008 Accord sedan, auto, except hers is a
LX-P with the 16" wheels instead of the 17" on mine. The same thing happened
with her TPMS light going on and off due to cold. It must be a cold issue
for that model. When the outside temp drops to 25F or lower the TPMS will
stay on and remain on even on the highway until the outside temp goes to at
least 30F and after at least a few hours.

Apparently its not a sensor problem or a tire problem its just a Honda fluke
with that model and with a certain degree of coldness...weird!
