Default Strange Onstar notification

I woke up this morning with a tire pressure notification from Onstar saying I had a flat...ugh.. checked them manually and the pressures are all good. It seems the target pressure was changed to 480psi. . Anybody else get this?

Appears to be a glitch for 2023s but not 2021s as my 2023 Z06 received the warning but my 2021 Stingray did not.

My pressure gauge only goes up to 200psi. Looks like I'll need a new addition to my tool chest.

Ha! Got one too. My car is on the transport making its way across the country. But then I checked the actual PSI and all the tires were at like 33-34. Silly OnStar.

I got this text at 6:38AM PDT when I started the car this morning:

Diagnostic Alert: Multiple tires on your 2023 Corvette are either flat or have low pressure. Please add air or change the tires before driving. Txt STOP to cancel.

Came at the same time as the September Onstar diagnostics email. Funny the email said all was good.

Must have been a glitch in the My Chevrolet App. it is back to 30PSI recommend now.

Yes, I got the same message this morning except Onstar told me I had four flat tires. Checked my tire pressure all was fine.

I'm going to be doing whatever I can to disable OnStar/GM collecting my personal data (as all manufacturers are increasingly doing):

I received one as well. It hit my mailbox at 8:10 AM. But between 8:00 -9:30 AM I was driving the car with all tire pressure monitors displayed, all were perfect. Odd. It's disconcerting to get that msg. My first thought was, "Crap, that's all I need!". But I checked anyway, they were all good.

There must have been a glitch with OnStar. I received a notification on the 2023 Z06, my 2024 Silverado HD and the Wife's new Blazer RS. They all came through within a couple of minutes of each other. Weird.

I am sure they will happily refund your monthly fee due to this FUBAR.

Remember, Grasshoppah, to err is human. To really eff things up, you need a computer.
