Chances are the sensor in your wheel is faulty. I doubt it will just go away or reset. The sensor is connected to the valve stem, sits inside the wheel, and sends a signal to your TPM. It's about the size of a thumb drive for your computer. When you think about the harsh environment it lives in, it's kind of amazing it works so well.

So why not make an apointment and drop your baby off? This might be the first time strangers will be examining it, but probably not the last. They'll give you a loaner and the repair will be free. You paid good $$$ for you baby, why not have it in perfect condition? Just be sure to tell them to be careful with those gorgeous rims.

2500 mi in 3 mo? Not bad. I've got 6500 in 6 mo.
