Some Dodge Ram 2500 owners report experiencing a recurring "Perform Service" message even after completing maintenance tasks. This warning typically indicates the need to replace or clean specific components, such as the CCV filter. To resolve this issue, owners are advised to follow the reset procedure for the "Perform Service" indicator system after maintenance, which includes steps like turning the ignition to the ON position and pressing the accelerator pedal within a designated timeframe. Additionally, some owners find that replacing the Closed Crankcase Ventilation (CCV) filter element may be necessary to eliminate the service message. It is crucial for owners to ensure that all maintenance tasks are performed according to the manufacturer's guidelines to prevent the message from reappearing. If the problem persists despite following these steps, consulting a certified mechanic or dealership for further diagnosis is recommended.
