I've got a 2020 Rebel and just noticed a drip running down the inside of my rear window. I know this is a common problem,as I read about it on this forum in the past. My question is can this be a warranty claim or not? I purchased my truck used but it was certified used through a Chrysler dealership. They informed me me that certified meant I got extended warranty. Any help would be appreciated!

There is an extended the warranty on the rear window, there is a thread discussing it somewhere. Not sure if they will replace the window or put a bead of silicone in there, there have been talks that the TSB no longer will replace the window, but stop the leak with urethane.

From what I understand, the warranty is extended to 150K for both the rear window and the third brake light. Just call your dealer and make an appointment. Vehicle warranties usually don't care if you are not the original owner.
 
So, I finally got it to the dealership for a headlight replacement (ruffled grouse at 75 mph) ,and while it was there had them look up the extended warranty for the back window leak. Sure enough ,it was covered ! No replacement under the extended warranty, just a reseal. Looks good, no leaks! And the $1100 headlight works too!
 
Just had same issue with rear window leaking on both sides in the corners. Upon further inspection from the outside, I notice a small crack in the seal on each side. I applied some Permatex Windshield and Window Sealant to each side, let it set overnight and tested it the next day. NO Leaks! Dealer advised me the leak was not covered unless it was coming from the third brake light which has an extended warranty on it.
