What pressure are you running front and back? And do you have the TPMS set on light load or heavy load?

you have to put in tires what door says for heavy load. I run 55psi in front and 65 rear, you have to drive over 20mph for 10 minutes for it to reset sensors.

That sounds right. As long as you're above the psi on the door it shouldn't be giving you a low pressure warning. If driving around doesn't reset it then you make have to take it in and let the dealer look at it.

Just double check the numbers on your door for light and heavy load and adjust accordingly. Hopefully that solves your problem.

Good deal, they normally give you about 5-8 either way for tempature change and shouldnt trigger light.
