2010hemi,

The system may not be able to detect the sensor since the tires were replaced preventing the TPMS from functioning properly. The TPMS is designed to work with the original parts equipped on the vehicle. I am not sure what tires were specifically changed on the vehicle, but keep in mind that using replacement equipment that is not the same size, type, and/or style may result in undesirable system operation or sensor damage. More information on the TPMS can be found on page 211 of the Owner's Manual.

You may want to review with the Canadian Tire that replaced the tire for you. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.
