2008 TL type S system function error message

Hey guys so this morning when turning on the car I got a system error message and it almost didn't start I attached a picture. I'm wondering if it's tpms related? Or the battery or something that has to do with the starter?

Im going to get tires in the next few days because these ones are finished anyway but just wondering if it's something I should worry about?

Thx I was thinking I should change the battery hopefully that will fix the problem. What is parasitic draw? Is it expensive to fix?

Yes that's because of the 2 front tires I got new tires for the back last week I'm getting new tires and installing the front ones either later this week or beginning of next week

Are you suggesting we change the car's battery or is there a TPMS receiver battery?

I have the same problem where the right rear would sometimes show 58 PSI. Now I have a total system failure where all 4 tires just have a "--" dash next to them. I suspect it to be the onboard receiver since it was giving bad readings now all 4 pressures went away.
Over the last month, it must have worked for a few minutes because I was driving and the TPMS failure flashed on again for all 4 tires.
