Should I have received trailer TPMS sensors with my new 5th gen w/trailer tow package?

I have a new 2022 Laramie purchased a couple weeks ago. It has the trailer tow package with the little knob to steer while backing. I see in the owner's manual something about "supplied" trailer sensors but I haven't found any extra sensors in the truck. Am I missing something.

Mine were in a package in the glove box. Heard of others not getting them as well. Pretty crappy if they eliminated them from the package.

My Lone Star was supposed to come with them but they weren’t in the truck when I picked it up. I contacted the dealership, who had no clue, and then I contacted Stellaris and they set the dealership straight. I picked them up about a week later.

Mine (2022 Limited) were in a box in the rear seat along with the trailer camera kit.

Here are photos of the box that the camera kit came in and the TPMS Sensors. Hope this helps.

The dealer probably nabs them during prep, then hopes buyers won't realize, then they can sell them off for pure profit.

Mine were on the rear floor board along with a bag with a black plastic piece and what looks like a couple of dummy plugs.

I found and downloaded my build sheets - what are we looking for on there to indicate if they were included or not?

I have the bag with a plastic piece about 5 inches long and a few plugs, but no sensors.

Mine were in a small box under the backseat. Tell the dealer to give to you are you will call Stellaris. The price of the package includes the sensors.

Doesn't matter what the build sheet shows really, if you purchased TTPMS, the kit includes the 4 sensor part number.

There were some "supply chain" issues, but if they were not included, it's an IOU or a price reduction.

Or some person took them so they didn't have to buy another set.

disagree
if it is on the build sheet it belongs on the truck

" if you purchased TTPMS"

Please show me where on a build sheet it lists the sensors. it doesn't. It lists the TTPMS option. The sensors are part of the kit.
