What's wrong, in plain English
On some 2019 Ram 1500 trucks, the wrong tire pressure sensor may have been installed during manufacturing. Because of this, the dashboard warning light may not turn on when a tire's air pressure gets low, so the driver would have no way of knowing there is a problem with the tire. Chrysler dealers will replace the sensor to fix the problem, free of charge.
