I have the same light for TPMS. I took my car to discount tire and they said all tires have normal tire pressure.

could the TPMS sensor go bad?

Yes, but if they refilled them it may take a few miles for the light to go away.

My mistake, mine reset everytime I turn the car off and only turn on after driving about 35 miles. I have aftermarket wheels and haven't put the sensors on them yet. If it doesn't ever turn off, it is probably a bad sensor.

This happened to me and never turned off even though my tires were good, then I though oh duh. I have premium package, full size spare. Fill that up and it was gone.

??? You filled up your spare that wasn't even installed on the car and the light went away?

This light means (Flower Pot)

basically it tells you to check your flower pots at home, see if they can use some water or miracle grow!

Its in the back, but it was low so it triggered the light.
