2015 RAM 2500 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.

VEHICLE TPMS ON RAM 2500'S IS SET TO 80PSI FOR "PROPER INFLATION" ON A UNLOADED TRUCK IS WAY TO MUCH. WHEN DRIVING DURNING SUMMER MONTHS TIRE PRESSURE IS EXCEEDING MAX TIRE PRESSURE OF 80PSI. NO WAY TO DEFLATE TIRE TO MORE SAFE PRESSURES WITHOUT TPMS "LIGHT" AND "WARNING INDICATOR" TELLING YOU TO INFLATE TIRES TO 80PSI. UPDATE TPMS TO BE ABLE TO LOWER TIRE PRESSURES TO A MORE REASONABLE PRESSURE BEFORE SOMEONE BLOWS OUT A TIRE AND HAS OR CAUSES AN ACCIDENT.
