Check the owners manual. IIRC there's a short blurb about the way that the system works (wheel speed)

That was on the 05 and older, the 06 uses the tire preasure sesnors in the wheel using the ecm, bcm, ipc, and the remote control door lock reciver. but yeah take it to the dealer unless the tire is low there is nothing you can do for it.
