Call me a liar if you want and ill be glad to upload the article but we'll just see what happens.

That's actually believable, I'd love to read the article though, it's ridiculous that they would make them last less...
That would be ridiculous if you had to replace sensors with every tire change.... I hope the car manufacturers will step in and develop in-house sensors that will last as long as they do right now.
I can see an aftermarket company developing sensors with longer lasting batteries.
