TPMS Sensor error

I tried searching the threads for something on this, but didn't really find anything with my problem. A month ago or so, I got a TPMS error light and an error message in the nav for the right rear sensor going bad. I didn't have a chance to get it to the dealership, and while I was in CT (Live in DC/VA area), I saw a Sears auto and just dropped it off there while shopping for them to take care of it. $120 later, the message was gone.

However, only the tire pressure for the right rear shows up now. The other 3 tires don't show the tire pressure. Brought it back to Sears, and they are able to reset it so that the other tires show. However, when I leave the car off for a minute or so (so that the TPMS system resets) and driving for a bit, the other 3 tires don't show the pressures again. Sears reset it a few times and the same thing keeps happening. Is this because I didn't have the work done at an Acura dealership and the new sensor is likely an aftermarket sensor? Should I see if Sears will take off the sensor and refund me and just go to an Acura dealership (Any ballpark on price?)

Thanks in advance
