A vehicle includes a powertrain, body, component, tire, lighting device, sensor, and controller. The lighting device is positioned with respect to the body or component, which is connected to the body, and illuminates in response to an output signal in a manner corresponding to a status of the vehicle. The sensor determines the status. The controller executes a method to receive, from a remote device, a proximity signal indicative of an operator of the vehicle being within range of the vehicle, and receives an input signal from the sensor indicative of the status of the vehicle. The status includes an ignition status and/or a low tire pressure status. The controller transmits the output signal to the lighting device in response to both the received input signal and the proximity signal to command illumination of the lighting device to thereby display the status of the vehicle.
