Glad yours was covered. For many of us RAM did not cover the window or the consequential damage. My window leaked badly and killed my RF hub but my VIN was not included on this "recall" for some unknown reason that was not disputable.
Makes sense. Every car I have owned with keyless remote entry has NEVER had gremlin battery drain issues. And I have had plenty over the last 20+ years. No battery tenders, no putting key fobs into RF blocked bags or cases.
Get them replaced under warranty. They are 100% covered. I don't know why they don't just replace the motors and hinges. Maybe that is what they will do next. Especially if you "demand" it. I had the driver's one 2 weeks ago have the motor and a hinge go out. The fixed it under my extended...
I want to be able to identify with all this talk about key fobs in proximity to the vehicle draining the battery overnight. But I can't. I have always kept my spare fobs (I have 4, don't ask) within range of the truck and have not had this problem. I recently went on a 2 week vacation and...
My warranty is shown in my signature. I purchased it when I bought the vehicle new. It is managed by Assurant. It has been a good experience so far and I am glad I bought it. The boards are standard equipment on my trim level so the "gamble" was built in. I really like them and how they...
It is so hard to believe how much repairs cost at the dealership. My driver side power running board needed a motor and hinge replaced. It was grinding and vibrating badly when deploying and storing. So I disabled them and took it in for repair. I have the extended warranty that fully...
That is a serious drain to bring it down to 0.1 or 0.0 volts overnight. Something is intermittently not shutting down normally. Congrats to the dealer for figuring out your battery isn't the issue. Now they need to find the real issue. Good luck and I hope they can figure it out. Although...
So mine failed due to the water leaking severely during Hurricane Milton. I left it outside in the driveway. In the morning the RF hub was dead. None of it was covered under warranty. So the hub and cables, moldy wet carpet, the back window. Around $4000 worth. I made an insurance claim...
I have the factory power steps on mine. They have been good up until last week. The driver side step needs a new motor and hinge in the forward part. It makes a horrible noise and vibration when deploying. I have disabled them temporarily in the UConnect settings. It is covered under my...
If the dealer can associate the RF hub failure to water intrusion, then you may want to consider using your auto insurance to cover it. That's what I did and it carried a $100 deductible. Way cheaper than $1300. And you will need to replace the back glass OR some have used some kind of...
Is this another name for the RF module? If it is, know that most if not all of these fail due to water intrusion through the back glass or CHMSL. Just alerting you.
That is correct. The auto sensing setting replaces the manual intermittent ones. The intermittent settings become the sensitivity of the auto sensing feature.
Certainly you could forego the auto feature (if equipped) for manual intermittent. I find the auto sensing works pretty well.
There is a Body Control Module (BCM) that I think may control all the lights. I had one fail for me where the DRLs on one side and the fog light on that side wouldn't work. They replaced the headlight assembly and the foglight (all LED) and the problem persisted. They then went to the BCM and...
My mistake. You are right it is a CR2450. Because my window was leaking long term, the cabling and connectors to the RF Hub were corroded and needed replacement. But mine failing was more catastrophic. When it failed, everything associated with it failed. Couldn't open doors, tailgate...
