I could be wrong, but for the flat roads here in Texas, having a little extra pressure seems to help reduce the rolling resistance. Been doing it with my EVs for years.

Overinflating does help with rolling resistance since less tire surface touches the road. But keep in mind, you’re trading off some traction and could end up with uneven wear. I usually do it on long road trips.
I have a GT model here in Germany, and I get the same issue. Really annoying.
FYI, the alerts aren’t based on psi, but on kPa. It’s possible two tires just hit the limit while the others didn’t. Gotta love metric vs. imperial, right?
