2023, 3500 drw tire rotation...

[snopro]

Went in for it's first oil change and check up .. dealership says not to rotate tires??? Any truth to this??? If not,,will the tpms correct itself when they are rotated ???

TPMS will correct itself. I’ve never owned a duallie but they def need to be rotated like any other vehicle.

Rotated mine around 7000. Next time gotta pay attention to align the valve stems on the inner/outer wheels. By the time I realized I messed it up, I said fck it, my back was starting to talk to me. Haven’t noticed any imbalance issues since rotation. Still debating adding some centramatic balancers on the next rotation

When it had its checkup,they had to send me to another dealership because the unit was too big for the alignment rack at my original dealership...
When purchased the unit had a drift to the right, alignment shown to be out...upon driving home still drifting to the right ugh...so after taking some measurements the rear axle isn't sitting perpendicular...now will have to lift the truck.. disconnect the shocks and loosen the u bolts and let the axle relax from the springs...

No problem getting a rotation done. Problem comes when the tpms sensors are now in the wrong location on the dash display. On my 2024 Tradesman they do NOT correct themselves by driving.

The best way I have found, so far, is to simply rotate the front wheels same side to the outer rears first. Then have the tire shop switch the tpms in the process.

Next rotation, switch the front to the inner using the same process. I think this is the most cost effective as my tire shop only charges me for the tpms rebuild kit as I have their warranty that covers balancing and rotating. Only cost me around $5 per tire every 10k miles.

Other options include but are not limited to, buying an expensive scan tool that both reads tpms id numbers and reprograms them, or paying the steelership a stupid amount of money to correct the location readings after a rotation. My local dealership wants $100 and leave the truck with them. NOPE.

If someone has a better answer to this simple process made not simple by Mopar I would love to know the answer. Tires are too expensive to not rotate.

I’ve owned three DRW all my life and had never rotated the tires. Just my sure you toe is correct.

I bought this one new 9k miles now. Had a warranty front end alignment done the first 3 days of ownership. It's good now but was not good coming from the factory.

I pay a shop to rotate the inners to the fronts when needed, as the inners are on steel rims
