One of the reasons I purchased my 2019 RAM Limited was items like this lower air dam. I watched the team build this new designed truck and loved everything about it, including the lowering air dam. I even clean the lower air dam when I scrub my truck. I have over 180,000 miles on my RAM now and have never had an issue with this or any other part. I've done all my maintenance and the truck has been solid! Best truck I've ever had and that's after owning over 12 different trucks. By the way, entry/exit mode is to make it easy to get in and out of the truck and also to pull a ball hitch out when you are disconnecting the trailer. The truck will go up to Aero mode when you reach up to 20 mph.

Total comfortable trip, in some cases we pulled the truck up in the dirt roads to hit the trails, I might have gotten 19.5 to 20 MPG, it not having to travel up harsh dirt roads.

Thanks for the explanation, and video footage. Had this 2024 Ram since February and had no idea. Happen to see it while swapping out my fog light bulbs. Glad I have this little feature actually. Thought the auto adjusting suspension was cool, but costly to have. Not to mention more stuff to possibly go wrong. So, if this works as intended that’s great. Can use all the fuel efficient stuff to help out with fuel consumption. Especially, if I’m towing the RV!!! That ride height feature is pretty cool by the way… just didn’t want to spend the extra money to get it, and all the other stuff the that came with it. Still, very cool!!!

Going to say the same... my limited with air suspension has the motorized air damn as well. Also believe the manual states aero mode is engaged at 63 but you can set manual drive in that position. My truck will not allow you to drive in the lowest setting, yeah you can move but it start raising up to aero. Same with off-road 1 & 2, truck lowers to normal once you're over 40 mph I believe.

I have a 2020 limited that does have the air suspension but it also has this part. In fact, I didn't know anything about the part until I noticed the left side of my truck (right side if you're looking directly at it from the front) was lower than the other side underneath it. I got up under there and realized that the entire bracket for the motor side of the rod for the system was completely broken off and just hanging there. No idea how that could happen in normal use. this thing seems to be only sold as an entire part and I can't just buy the bracket. Annoying.

Rarely get above 10 mph in the barge yard, so it should have been stowed in the up position, but was not. Broke thick plastic mounts and was dragging by the wire. A friend stopped and helped me get it into the bed. Service rep said it was not covered under the warranty. Told me where the parts dept. was so I could order parts at my expense. Put it back into the bed. Now stored in my shop. Gas mileage might have improved, not certain.
