You should check for error codes (DTC's) before going any further. If your vehicle has tire pressure monitoring (TPMS), one has probably failed. Only if this is the case, yes, it's safe.

Most reputable tire shops have the tool to access the tire monitor system. The tire pressure sensors in each tire have a battery that goes dead eventually.
It should turn off after you inflate the tires with the proper amount of air and drive it for a few miles. Otherwise, one of the TPMS units is bad and needs to be replaced. There is one in each tire air valve.
I have the same issue, just started today. My radio went out, tire light came on... now my keyless entry doesn't work, and it says all 4 tire sensors are not responding. I tried replacing fuse #23 (15A) [audio] fuse inside the car on the pass side, and it immediately pops when I put a new one in.... 2009 g5 with 39k miles. great...
Wrench button? If your service tire monitor light came on, you either have a tire pressure out of spec, or you have a problem with the monitoring system. First check your tire pressures, and if that does not turn the light off contact a dealer or reputable tire store.
Hi, check all tire pressures, they need to be as close as possible to what the door panel/jam list for recommend inflation psi. If not this service tire monitor will light on dash.
either a new tyre valve sensor or the reciever ,but in the snow it could have got too cold for the electronics to work ,you might find that when it warms up it will work ok
Unfortunaltly you can't turn the light off unless the repair is made. It is a safety feature. And yes, the little monitor inside the rim has gone bad or cracked. These are easily replaced by a tire technision, but the cost of the (TPMS)tire moniter is pricey.
If this warning came up soon after the tire was replaced then the most likely cause is the tire installer damaged the pressure sensor inside the tire. They are easy to damage.
