I'd go and get it scanned, might be a bad sensor, a scan could pinpoint which one went bad, best of luck!

did you ever figure out what was wrong?

To be honest I don't even remember what the guy at Chevy said. I brought it in because it was never brought in for the recall, and had him shut it off...The only thing I remember is him saying if it gets turned on again, it would be $50 to shut off..Doubt that helps haha

1st fix your leaking tire, then worry about the warning light..It may be a case where if the pressure is not staying constant it will not reset.

Default Easy reset

If you do this engine running or just key on it will work it has too. When I say key on the warning lights should come on but not start the engine.
1: key on or start engine
2: pull headlamp switch out to 1st position (just parking lamps not full headlights)
3: off on off on off on off
4: by design it has to be reset.

If that doesn't work and you have the original radio still
1: key on
2: push and hold tune button (Radio off)
3: push seek/scan until tire mon shows
4: push prev/next until reset shows
5: push tune to select reset

A lot of people don't pull the headlamp switch to only the 1st position then off 3 times. But that is how it's programed to work only

My great uncle & aunt have an '03 Monte LS, a true Florida Cream Puff with 84,000 miles. Their tire pressure light was on. Had all 4 tires filled and tried to reset the code, to no avail. But...they checked the spare in the trunk, empty. Filled it, and it went off.

Coincidence?

You tell me...I'm not an electrician, and hardly a G6 Monte expert...
