Rear window area not sealing properly from issues with body causing water to leak into the cabin. This is causing mold growth, electrical shorts and possible fires. There are hundreds of trucks dealing with this issue discussing this via online forums. Many are breaking the rear windows just to have insurance fix it, some are slapping silicone everywhere to stop the leaks.

Known manufacturer defect in rear sliding window plastic frame that cracks and allows water to enter into the rear cab of the truck. This leads to wet seats, headliner and carpet. If undetected or not corrected this could lead to mold growing behind the rear seats. This also is causing rust on the bolts that hold the rear seat in place. It also affects the various electronic controls that reside behind the rear seat. If those controls short out and sizable the truck while it is traveling down the highway this could lead to a fatality. The FCA is NOT repairing is issue after the 3 year/36,000 mile warranty or if the vehicle was purchased (and registered in Canada and then resold in the US).

The Rambox door randomly pops open fully while going down the road allowing items stored in the Rambox to come out of the compartment while traveling down the road. This poses a severe risk to the vehicles following behind my vehicle. I brought the truck in for service and was told that this is not a safety recall, which is incredulous to me. I was told that the cause of the failure was a remote switching device in the B pillar, which is obviously nothing that has been damaged by my use. Since this started happening to me, I have heard of two other drivers of trucks with the Rambox with this same incident. I believe both of those vehicles were 2020 Dodge trucks. This has happened multiple times to me, and they want over $400 to fix it!

Rear window structure frame cracks prematurely causing structural damage due to water leaking through into the cab of the truck. This defective backlite by RAM 1500 has been leaking causing the rear window visibility to be affected by fogging up too easily and water dripping through the windows frame on to the inside of the window, also the vehicle is equipped with a battery pack behind the rear seat and if left to get wet will cause failures and damage to vehicle electrical system. The vehicle has been inspected and confirmed by the Ram certified dealership. Manufacture has been informed of this ongoing issue and has issued prior TSB cases for this defect. No prior issues with rear window prior to noticing the faulty cracked window frame. It appears this has been happening to several ram 1500 from years 2019-2022 this should not be happening on a like new 2 year old well taken care of vehicle

The key fobs would not work to unlock or start the vehicle. After two weeks with the Woodland, CA Hoblit dealership, it was determined that two cracks in the rear windshield led to electrical damage under the backseat where the key fobs connect to an electrical sensor. This caused the truck to be non-operational and requiring it to be towed. According to the dealership, they have now seen three recent cases of the same cracks in the rear windshield. When it rains heavy, more of these trucks will no longer become operational. If this went out while driving, the vehicle would not be able to operate, causing an unsafe situation for all drivers on the road. There was no warning. It rained and the cracks were not noticed as they blend into the design of the rear windshield.

Water is leaking into the cab of the truck from the back window. Took the vehicle to dodge and they stated it was an issue with the window and seal and it shouldn't have failed like this. Declined warranty because it isn't covered past 12k miles. Customer service via phone call on 5-17-21 stated windows are similar to brakes and windshield wipers as they wear out and that makes it not a manufacturers issues. The water damage is severe and causes a moldy smell and could comprise the live wires in the third brake light. There was no warnings and there isn't anything caused by the user. This seems to be a known problem that others have reported to the nhtsa and on message boards monitored by Dodge Inc. Seat belts by the water damage had to replaced as they were locking up randomly causing child restraint to get too tight.

I am wanting to file a claim on a 2019 Ram 1500 for a defective rear window. This is a known issue that fca has refused to acknowledge or resolve. The rear window frame is weak and cracks around the rear sliding glass. With these cracks, there is potential for water to leak into the cab of the vehicle. There are also issues with cracks and leaking around other areas of the rear window frame. This may be due to a faulty seal when manufactured. My fear is that this will cause mold to develop behind as well as on my rear seats causing potential harm to not only my vehicle, but myself and family. I also do not want potential damage to important electrical components that are located behind and under the rear seat. My truck is out of warranty, and I understand that there isn't much fca will do, I just hope that pressure is put on them to improve and develop a better design to prevent this issue. I would also like to see fca extend an olive branch so to speak to the customers who have this issue by either replacing the part, or covering a portion of the repair cost for those that are in or out of warranty.

I had noticed that the rear window on the drivers side would leak a small dribble of water after a car wash or a heavy rain. The vehicle was not moving at the time of discovery. I took my truck into meador cdjr in fort worth tx and they removed and replaced the rear seat and rear window. They installed a new window seal and replaced the rear seat. They covered this as a warranty item with no charge to me.

Rear window has developed cracks in the upper frame allowing water in the cab. This allows water to come in contact with the electronic systems on the rear wall. Which have a possibility to short the system and possibly cause an accident.
