Message on screen "Service: Tire Monitor System"

Hi folks, recently received this message on the Infotainment screen. I assume this means the car is no longer communicating with the tire pressure sensors? Googling doesn't seem to help. What is the recommended procedure?

Thanks in advance for any and all replies.

 

[Hey Vern!]

usually one or more tire is low or the batteries are starting to fail.

Thank you, scheduled an appointment with my local tire shop.

This same thing happened to our EQ just last week. Here is what I found: With that message displayed, press the "okay" check mark on the steering wheel. This will temporarily clear the message, but what is better, it will then show the tire pressure screen, and it will be very obvious which sensor has failed. I took ours into the GM dealer, and requested all four sensors to be replaced, figuring that if the battery on one has died, the others won'd be far behind.
I found it very telling that our dealer in our small town had 17 of those TP sensors in stock. The genuine GM sensors are not cheap, but no doubt worth it in the long run.

The price dealers (and many tire shops) want to replace those sensors is shocking. Shop around! Yes the original GM sensors make the best replacements.

Thanks folks. Turns out the rear passenger sensor had gone bad. Had it replaced, no more messages--I will keep an eye out for the fate of the others.
