Has anyone encountered this problem? All tires are pressured up which should satisfy the sensors but still have this problem. Any advise is appreciated, thank you.
I don’t have a problem with doing so and checking out if that is the issue. I did read where it could be associated with the “remote control door lock receiver” which apparently is also associated with the TPMS system but will require dealership programming for the key fobs to recognize the new receiver. Looks like a trip to the dealership if nothing else works. Thank you.
Disconnect the LEDs and see if the TPMS starts working again. If it does that is a sure indicator the LEDs interfered with the TPMS system which communicates through the door lock receiver. The fact that it didn't bother things for two years may be due to the batteries in the sensors losing their charge and not sending out a sufficiently strong signal to override interference from the LEDs.
How old is your car? 2017 build dates were from about the end of June 2016 to the beginning of June 2018.
TPMS sensors usually last 7 to 10 years so if your car is an early build it might need new sensors if they are not lasting quite as long as others.
If new sensors are required there is no need to visit a dealership. Almost any tire store can replace them. You don't even need a tool to reprogram the car to recognize them as the car will learn new sensors while you are driving (see OM).

did you every get the issues resolved I’m currently having the same issues was wondering if you got it fixed
You do not need to go to the dealer to program your remotes. They may want to charge you $100 for their "SPECIAL" procedure. There is a specific procedure, but does not have to be done by the dealer. Look it up online. I had this issue when I purchased new TPMS's and rims. I changed the pressure in each wheel and tested the pressure with my hand held tire pressure gauge. Then looked at the display to see which tire had which pressure. I found out that the front two pressures were switched around. I tried switching the TMPS's and switching the wheels. Nothing helped. I finally decided to make all of the wheels the exact same pressure and figured, if one went low I would just have to check which one it was.
I got one like this. They are on Amazon also. Not very expensive.
