I recently purchased a 2018 Rebel with Air suspension. The truck has 28000 miles. I live in Pennsylvania, where the temperature is currently about 80 degrees. I noticed the other day that the front was sitting on the bumper blocks, and the rear was in off road mode. While doing a little trouble shooting, I noticed the 40A fuse was blown. I replaced the fuse and the air compressor fired right up and elevated the truck. 2 days later, ( without driving) same fuse was popped again. I again replaced the fuse, waited for the truck to elevate, and removed the fuse. I have let the truck sit for a week now, and the truck remains at the same height ( I dont think it is a leak issue). I was curious if anyone Is having similar problems ? I am not getting any codes or service AIR SUSPENSION messages. I have scheduled an appointment at the dodge dealer.

Sounds like maybe your compressor is starting to draw too much power. Could be a connection or the compressor may need to be replaced. Should be under warranty if it only has 28,000 miles.
Have your dealer check it out.

I had the same problem on my 2014. The dealer said they sometimes see moisture in the air system. they evacuated the system and recharged it with nitrogen and haven't had a problem since. that was at 75,000 miles
