you might have some sensors going bad (dying battery) you can do a search on TPMS in this forum ans find all the info you need and by the way your door sticker says 30 psi for nominal cold inflation....good luck

Same happened to me several times while highway driving, long trip, rainy night, rr tire pressure would go to 0, and the DIC would show same msg. Kept pulling over to check tire pressure each time it alerted, reset and all would be fine for a few more miles. I think the sensor battery was dying and I also think I had a bad O ring seal around the sensor to the rim. Good luck.
