How long ago did you change the tires? I think you need to give it a good 20 miles for it to sync with the sensors...

I think you need the dealer to diagnose the problem, you might need new sensors(Unlikely) or just reprogramming...

Well they said they reprogrammed the sensors and replaced the front passenger and now the passenger back is doing it along with the front again

I'm sure you don't want to hear this, but you'll need to take it back to the dealer. The dash signifies that the sensor is not working correctly. Could be just a bad batch that got installed in your vehicle.

you're not the only one. 2,000 into owning my truck and all four sensors go in and out randomly on any given day. at least 1 is out every time i go for a drive. tires and truck are fine, which is what i care about. but i'll definitely be taking it to the dealer soon.

In both your cases it sounds like a bad receiver. I don't believe you have more than one bad sensor at the same time, it doesn't make any sense.

Receiver?

Something in the truck has to pick up the signal from the sensor in your wheel, it's called a Receiver.
The sensor is a transmitter and what picks up the signal is a receiver.

Which fuse did you hard wired to?

It could cause some problems, yes...
Disconnect the dash cam, drive for a little bit and see what happens..
try tap into a different fuse..

I have a Viofo and no issues, but like @gHiDoRa said, the cable could have something to do with it (@Edwards had this happen to him).

Cheers,
