Just put a slightly larger tire on my 1500 BTS edition and speedo is off by as much as 5 mph. Went to the dealer to have them input the correct tire size and was told the truck automatically senses tire size and auto adjusts speedo. Said only time they manually adjust is w 40 inch tires. Need a new dealer.

Yes you do!!. However, my suggestion, get an MX+, Koadatech security cable and download AlphaOBD. For the same price as the dealer making that one change you now have the ability to do a whole lot more, including the inflation limits on your TPMS system.

I would have happily paid the dealer to fix the Fog light drop out, adjust TPMs limits etc but despite having a great Dealer, there is stuff they just can't access. They are locked out by Stellantis. That was actually what convinced me to get the AlphaOBD.
