Seriously. Ten times that number die in traffic accidents in the US daily.

If that's your level of risk sensitivity, don't get in a car.

What? About 100 people die from road vehicles per day in the US, not 3000.

Ah sorry, that's the global statistic, not the US statistic.

Still, both statistics illustrate the point - 300 deaths a few decades ago involving faulty tires that may have been exacerbated by manufacturer-recommended underinflation have basically 0 bearing on the marginal risk of driving with a TPMS warning light illuminated.
