Cavalier low tire pressure ABS and steering issues

Hi, I have a 2018 Chevrolet Cavalier with a gasoline engine and I'm getting a low tire pressure warning. The ABS lamp lights up, the steering wheel vibrates/shakes and it requires more effort to steer. I checked the tire pressure and they seem ok. What could be the cause?

A 2018 Chevrolet Cavalier owner experienced a low tire pressure warning, ABS light activation, and steering issues despite checking tire pressure. The problem was identified as a defective valve and faulty tire sensor, which were replaced at a workshop, resolving the issues.

Did this summary help you solve your problem?

I had similar symptoms on my Cavalier. Does the problem occur with all four tires? The tire monitoring system might be failing.

Thanks! I haven't checked all the tires. If it's only one tire, what could be the issue? Could it be a punctured tire or maybe just an air leak?

If the issue is only with one tire, it could be a defective valve in that tire, causing a slow leak. However, given the ABS light, you should visit a workshop as soon as possible. I ended up paying 280€ to fix it, the tire sensor was faulty.

Thanks for the help. I took it to a workshop and you were right, it was a defective valve! Replaced it and the sensor. All good now.
