Description of the problem | Tl* the contact owns a 2017 ram 2500. The contact stated that the tire was inflated above the recommended psi. While driving 30 mph, the contact drove over a set of railroad tracks and the vehicle fishtailed. The vehicle was taken to an unknown dealer where it was diagnosed that it operated as intended. The contact stated that the tires were deflated to 63 psi, which prevented the vehicle from fishtailing when traveling over rough terrain. The contact stated that deflating the tire produced a fault code. The contact was informed by the dealer that the manufacturer required the over inflation of the tire. The contact was concerned that the driver's door decal stated that the tire max tire pressure was 60. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 1,700. |
