RAM 1500 Tungsten without Park Assist

[David McElwee]

I have Ben looking for new truck and looked into the new 2025 Tungsten as it had everything I was looking for. All the research I did and articles I read indicated the Park Assist feature was standard equipment on the Tungsten. Sooo, I found one and purchased it last Monday not specifically looking to see if the Park Assist feature was there and got home only to find no such feature on my new truck. Every single article I read says it a standard feature on the Tungsten. Any thoughts or anyone have a similar experience and what remedy would be expected? Thanks! Dave

Your truck doesn't beep at you when you get close to something in the front or back? Or are you confusing it with semi-auto park for parallel and perpendicular parking. If it is that one, there should be a button on the upper-right of the screen that has a "P" and steering wheel on it.

Also, you should post in the appropriate area and not under the new user area. You will get better help.

Thanks! I’m new so not familiar with where to post. To answer your question, it’s the parking assist that will parallel park for you that is missing. Thanks!

Is it on your build sheet? And to confirm, you don't have the button that I mentioned?

Bought this off the lot. Not on window sticker if that’s what you mean by build sheet. And there is no button. I had this feature on truck I traded so I I know what to look for.

That sucks. I looked on the website and it's not an option. But it shows the button in the picture.

Hi Dave! The same thing happened to me. I think we should start a class action lawsuit for false advertising the auto park feature.

On Rams website it shows it as a standard feature and mentions nothing about late ability like other features. It’s not an option when you build the Tungsten because it’s implied that it’s standard on this trim level

In the same boat here. I'm not overly concerned about it as I can park the truck just fine, but the wife is very uncomfortable driving a full size truck and would love that option. One of the reasons we went with the Tungsten trim level is that is was advertised as standard. Even the things they adjusted to late availability were advertised as standard when I ordered my truck. Off the top of my head.....

Automated Park Assist
Trailer Surround View
Phone as key

I still can live without APS & TSV but I really want Phone Key. I wish Tungsten could offer Auto Hold.

So, I was just poking around Ram's website. While it shows park assist as standard on the Tungsten, if you look just on the specification tab, it says Park Assist is a late availability feature. Considering the 25 model year hasn't been on the streets for very long, that may explain lack of the feature.
