Default Speedo Issues

Not the speedo that you wear, LOL. It seems that my speedometer is off by like 5 mph. Go by the speed limit sign with radar in, my truck is reading 19mph, the radar is showing 24mph. What can I do to fix this. The tires are stock.
Thanks

Buy a Superchips 3865 Tuner or go to the dealership. Just be aware that some of those signs have a built in safety factor. Do you have a GPS? Check it that way just for ****s and giggles

yep, what he said....either a tuner or take it to a dealer....it's all electronic so you can't do anything mechanical to fix it....

I don't think I would invest in some tuner chip to fix my speedometer, if its off. Dodge dealer can fix this, in 60 seconds. I switched a few tire sizes since I have owned it, and they were always happy to correct the size.

if your sure its off, pay them a visit.
