Dude....everyday driving on roads with their cracks, rills, potholes and debris are going to cause the tire to momentarily deform on the rim which causes air loss. Its part of natural physics for tires to loose air. Over time it adds up to a threshold of pressure loss which will trip the low-pressue indicator.

Tire pressure should be checked every week....its a best practice that most folks are too lazy to do...
