2000 Dodge Ram Other / unspecified Problems

Owner-reported complaints naming the other system, filed with NHTSA

Data refreshed

Other / unspecified reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

THE VEHICLE CERTIFICATION LABEL HAS THE WRONG TIRE SIZE AND INFLATION PRESSURE ON IT. IT STATES THE TRUCK HAS P225/75R16 TIRES WITH A PRESSURE OF 41PSI. THE TRUCK WAS MANUFACTURED WITH P245/75R16 TIRES WITH A MAX PSI OF 35. THIS COULD RESULT IN OVERINFLATION OF THE TIRES IF A PERSON WENT BY THE PRESSURE ON THE LABEL INSTEAD OF THE TIRES. I HAVE TALKED WITH THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THEY COULD NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT IS COMMON. IF THAT IS THE CASE, WHY DOES THE DOT REQUIRE THE INFORMATION BE THERE?
