The "check TPMS" warning light keeps on coming on and off irregularly, and the TPMS displays very wrong tire pressure measurement numbers. I checked the tires manually, and read their pressure all around 33 psi while the TPMS displayed the right front tire pressure as 58 psi.

I own a Acura TL 2006 car, the driver side rear wheel's brake caliper has failed and it does not retract the break piston therefore the brakes always being applied. This is causing the wheels to be super heated and severe burning smell coming out of the car's rear area. Having talked to the dealer, I was told this is a safety hazard but they will not fix it unless I pay $350.
