TPMS probably went bad. It's covered under the warranty. Mine did that after a wheel/tire change.

Suspect your tire gauge, might not be accurate.

Shortly after I got my car, I had low pressure warnings on all four tires one morning. It was very cold, so I assumed it was the temperature driving the pressure down. To be certain, I drove over to my dealer. The pressure in all the tires was fine, we reset the TPMS and a warning hasn't returned.

I had the same thing shortly after delivery. Went to the dealer, they checked and reset the TPMS, still had the problem, finally they changed all of my four tires. The problem is gone now.
