Love the forum so far. Appreciate your guys' input on this if possible.

So I was going through the dash options while the engine was off on my 2018 1500 and noticed the mileage descrepency on the oil life monitor to my odometer reading. This is a salvaged titled vehicle and the mileage doesn't scare me all too much but just wanted to see what you guys thought?

Thank you in advance.

try this and see if it changes. Evic self test. While truck is off, hold down the down button on the steering wheel and turn the truck to ACC position.
Let it settle and see what the values are after.....

Just checked after evic. Looks to be the same. Good to know it is just a bug in the software. 20191117_144337.jpg

Very strange, I bought my 2016 from a dealer and noticed the same thing. It was a leased vehicle which I purchased 8/22/19. Tires look like they need to be changed soon... but was curious if the odometer was tampered with. But all of the numbers under change so far is the same???My_truck_instrument_panel.jpg
