How to clear warning message?

Hi! Did you figure the solution? I got my tires replaced today and I still have the alert
This has been affecting me! I took it to Tesla on Monday - they cleared the warning, and it popped up again yesterday, so whatever they did, they only camouflaged the issue. I had both rear tires replaced a week ago. Tesla confirmed the tread and wear on all the tires is normal and safe. Tried the power off, soft reset, TMPS reset, wheel config reset, and it keeps coming on and off. I’ll drive for a while, it’ll turn off, only to come back on
would a SC appointment help to remove this annoying warning since Tesla seems not hearing all our complaints.
I've had this warning 24/7 since the update. Tires are fine, better than 6/32" still left, stock everything. Not liking that I have to explain to anyone who gets in the car (clients), that yes, the tires are actually safe, yes, I am qualified the make that judgment, and yes, my car is stupid. Embarrassing. Thanks a bunch, Tesla!
Between this, the bass-ackwards Christmas update and the significant increase in rattles over the last year or so, I'm feeling a lot like driving my car through the showroom window and leaving it there.

That's what happened to my wife's M3 LR. Replaced all tired with OEM. The message went away within a day. I am baffled by other posts that many continued to see the warning despite replacing tire. I wonder if Tesla set to warning to monitor OEM tires only. That will be bad if we choose to use other brand of equivalent tires.
Talk about warning messages. Yesterday while in drive, a bunch of warning messages came on. Hold feature got turned off, Lane changing warning not available, Skid avoidance feature turned on etc. I think this is a result of my Steering alignment has been off since day one on the car and I continue to drive waiting for service appointment. I have less than 800 miles on the car. But these feature changes just came on all of a sudden. I think I will hold off driving it until my appointment. Sighs.
Well, it “only” took 40 days and 770 miles, but finally the warning message has disappeared.
It happened about week before the service appointment I scheduled a month ago. I had asked the CS person to report this bug (“It is really bad for an erroneous warning message to be displayed continuously for 40 days. It is distracting to the driver and causes ‘warning fatigue’ where new REAL warnings could be ignored.”).
They replied “This is a known issue and is currently being worked on by engineering.”
Won't it be nice if somehow, somewhere Tesla can post the "known issues" so that we don't overwhelm their SC's? We learned most of the issues from TMC. Or Tesla is taking the "what you don't know won't hurt us" attitude?
I guess patience is the only solution until Tesla figured out how to resolve this "known issue". I think Tesla expects all tires should wear at the same rate but in fact, the rear tires wear faster. I had to replace all 4 even the front tires had good thread remaining. Otherwise, I am sure I have to put up with this stupid notice also.

You could put a piece of black tape over the message until it deletes itself. It works. Sure, it's childish, but you don't have to see it, and it will eventually go away.
For staggered tires, does resetting the tire configuration eventually make the message go away?
From Manual:
If you are installing new wheels or swapping them for different ones, update your vehicle's wheel configuration by touching Controls > Service > Wheel Configuration. This allows Model 3 to learn the new wheels and provide more accurate status updates on your vehicle. Select a wheel from the drop down menu that matches the new wheels you plan to install on Model 3. Selecting new wheels in the wheel configuration also changes the wheels that appear on your vehicle's avatar on the touchscreen.
Ensure you are aware if your vehicle is equipped with staggered wheels, meaning the wheels are different sizes in the front and rear. Check the front and rear tire sizes marked on the tire sidewall to see if they match or are different sizes. If the wheels are staggered, take extra precaution to ensure the new wheels you install are staggered in the same way as the previous wheels.
