What year/model is your car?

On 2003/04 cars, you see left and right front readings, and toggle to left and right rear readings.

page 2-10 of owner's manual

equipped)
The tire pressure indicator shows tire pressure
(0 - 51 psi) of all wheels (except the spare tire)
by sending a signal from a sensor that is installed
in each wheel. Press the trip computer setting
switch B to change the display to F (front) or R
(rear).
doesn't specify which side

then again, the manual does state you shold not rely on the TPMS as a actual reading of your PSI. this means you will still need to actually use a tire pressure gauge and manually check the tires.
