2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer Tires & Wheels Problems

Low tire presher lights stay on even when the tire presher is ok. Also I want to say the anti sliding feature says it is not working as well. I could be wrong about this feature but there si a button on the gear shift that controls this option. The button will not turn it on and off.

2007 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VALVE STEM CAPS AND TIRE PRESSURE *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING, AN ICON ON THE DASHBOARD LIT UP AND INDICATED LOW TIRE PRESSURE. THE CONSUMER STOPPED TO A GAS STATION TO CHECK THE AIR, BUT WAS UNABLE TO UNSCREW THE VALVE STEM.
