I have looked into this issue and there are 1,000's of people with the same issue I have. My airbags go low over night and under 32 degrees don't pump up at all. I work 26 miles away and travel to work riding on my frame. My body is jarred and my truck is getting beaten because the air ride system is not working properly. You can hear the pump working and I've been told that it's a valve needed to be replaced. This issue is not from age. Others have had this problem as early as 40k.
