Tire sensor goes off. Can be any tire from time to time. Had it to the Chevy dealer and they could not find anything wrong. Reset the sensor and it will be fne for 5-6 weeks and then it happens again.

most batteries in the tire pressure sensors last 5-10 years. you are probably do for new ones…

Sensor battery diagnosis  
It’s not always easy to assess the actual condition of a  
sensor battery, unless it has already gone bad! When that  
happens, the sensor stops transmitting and sets off the  
vehicle’s malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). A weakened  
battery may be more difficult to determine because the  
transmissions could become sporadic. Some TPMS scan  
tools have a battery status check, which can help identify  
a battery with reduced voltage.
