NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V887
Manufacturer Chrysler
(FCA US LLC)
Components TIRES
Potential Number of Units Affected 34
Summary
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2019 Ram 1500 trucks. An incorrect Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor could have been installed during production causing the sensor to not display the low tire pressure warning indicator. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 138, “Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems.”
Remedy
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the TPMS sensor, free of charge. The recall began January 9, 2020. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler’s number for this recall is VE1.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Dealer Service Instructions for:
Safety Recall VE1 / NHTSA 19V- 887 Tire Pressure Monitor System
Remedy Available
| 2019 | (DS) | Ram 1500 Pickup |
NOTE: Some vehicles above may have been identified as not involved in this recall and therefore have been excluded from this recall.
IMPORTANT: Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory. Federal law requires you to complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery. Dealers should also consider this requirement to apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for service. Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.
Subject
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor on about 34 of the vehicles above may be incorrect for the vehicle application which will cause the TPMS to display a malfunction indicator within a 20-minute drive, making the TPMS unable to display the indicator for low tire pressure. A driver may be unable to identify if low tire pressure occurs if the malfunction indicator lamp is activated. Low tire pressure can result in potentially degraded handling performance, which can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning.
The condition above fails to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. FMVSS 49 CFR 571.138, Tire pressure monitoring systems, S4 Requirements. S4.1 General. requires the suspect vehicles to “[…] be equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system that meets the requirements
specified in S4 under the test conditions specified in S5 and the test procedures specified in S6 of this standard.” S6 testing requires that the low tire pressure indicator illuminate in specific test conditions. Vehicles built with incorrect TPMS sensors will not illuminate the low tire pressure indicator under the test conditions of 49 CFR 571.138, S6.
Repair
Remove all four tires and wheels, replace all four of the TPMS sensors, balance the tire and wheel assemblies and set tire pressure according to tire pressure label located on the driver’s door opening near the striker.
Parts Information
Parts required will be on Vin Specific Ordering in DealerConnect.

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL
Tire Pressure Monitor
Dear [Name],
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
FCA US has decided that certain [2019 (DS) Ram 1500 Pickup] vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 138, Tire pressure monitoring systems, S4 Requirements. S4.1 General. requires the suspect vehicles to “[…] be equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system that meets the requirements specified in S4 under the test conditions specified in S5 and the test procedures specified in S6 of this standard.” S6 testing requires that the low tire pressure indicator illuminate in specific test conditions. Vehicles built with incorrect TPMS sensors will not illuminate the low tire pressure indicator under the test conditions of 49 CFR 571.138, S6.
It is extremely important to take steps now to repair your vehicle to ensure the safety of you and your passengers.
WHY DOES MY VEHICLE NEED REPAIRS?
The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensor on your vehicle [1] may be incorrect for the vehicle application which will cause the TPMS to display a malfunction indicator within a 20minute drive, making the TPMS unable to display the indicator for low tire pressure. A driver may be unable to identify if low tire pressure occurs if the malfunction indicator lamp is activated. Low tire pressure can result in potentially degraded handling performance, which can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning.
HOW DO I RESOLVE THIS IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE?
FCA US will repair your vehicle [2] free of charge (parts and labor). To do this, your dealer will replace and program all four TPMS sensors. The estimated repair time is two hours. In addition, your dealer will require your vehicle for proper check-in, preparation, and check-out during your visit, which may require more time. Your time is important to us, so we recommend that you schedule a service appointment to minimize your inconvenience. Please bring this letter with you to your dealership.
TO SCHEDULE YOUR FREE REPAIR,
CALL YOUR CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP OR RAM DEALER TODAY
WHAT IF I ALREADY PAID TO HAVE THIS REPAIR COMPLETED?
If you have already experienced this specific condition and have paid to have it repaired, you may visit www.fcarecallreimbursement.com to submit your reimbursement request online. [3] Once we receive and verify the required documents, reimbursement will be sent to you within 60 days. If you have had previous repairs performed and/or already received reimbursement, you may still need to have the recall repair performed.
We apologize for any inconvenience, but are sincerely concerned about your safety. Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
