I am not sure what we are looking at there. Anytime you remove fixed glass you are going to have roughness around the edges. As far as the leak, it would be more interesting to see the extent of the rust and corrosion. The surface of the motor for the rear window doesn't really tell us...

Is the truck dealer serviced? You may have some luck asking (politely, respectfully, but firmly) for goodwill assistance on the repair. Tell them you would like to stay a Ram customer (even if somewhat BS) but the truck has had a lot of issues and it would be meaningful for factory support on...

Constructive discussion and solutions, not pointless whining.

Not at all. But things happen in life, much worse than this. If I were you, I would be annoyed, no question. But rather than coming here to pointlessly vent, I would ask the dealer for a loaner. And not a ****box, but a nice loaner - another Ram 1500, a Jeep Grand Cherokee, a Wagoneer, etc...

I don’t question that any car can have issues, but is it easier to come post on the internet or would it be better and perhaps more productive to ask the dealer to provide a loaner while the issue is resolved. A big dealer like Mark Dodge doesn’t have service loaners? If you have the loaner...

Candidly, I have learned not to argue with people on the internet. I stated my views above, after fully reading what you described, and they remain unchanged. Good luck getting your truck fixed, seriously.

My sense is we are not getting the full story. I don’t like insurance companies but first Ram is evil and now Allstate is too. There is another side of the story here. Plus the rear glass leak is not a deluge of water generally that would lead to mold unless the truck were unattended for...

There is something not right here. 2019 and 2020 Rams are covered by an 8 year extended warranty on the back glass and third brake light. When I experienced the leak, the only issue was the wait for new glass. I complained to Chrysler corporate and they expedited the part in two weeks and...

This happened once on my truck. First, turn off the feature that automatically engages the parking brake when you go into park. This feature also engages the parking brake if the door is opened at slow speeds. As others have said, then disconnect the battery. On our truck, what triggered...

I understand that the Ford 3.5 eco boost has been a reliable motor, much better than the 2.7 (seems odd to me). The hurricane reliability is open issue, it is unknown I agree and I would imagine bugs will surface. Hopefully they are relatively minor and can be properly sorted over the...

Not trying to argue but I do question how the corporate drama really impacts customers. Using myself as example, we have a 2020 1500. Truck has been great and pretty much trouble free. Based on this ownership I would definitely consider another. Also needed a super large SUV for our family...

2020 Ram 1500 Laramie with the Level II package so it is a complex truck Only problem has been the leaking rear window. Took several weeks to get the part and had to garage the truck during that time to make sure I didn't get something wet that shouldn't get wet. Otherwise, no issues in 41k...

I have not had this experience with our Ram. However many years ago I had (and still have) a BMW where they had to change the block due to chemical corrosion of the cylinder liners. We also had a Honda where they changed the oil control rings on the deactivated bank of the motor - it utilized...

I am sorry, but you keep repeating the magic oil hypothesis and it is simply not correct. If you have a problem with improper hardening of a camshaft, and the owner like this original poster seems like a knowledgeable guy who keeps up on maintenance, so we can rule out neglect, there is No...

What do you lose by driving it and checking the oil for metal when you change it? At 70k, the truck is not new and for the sake of another 10-15k miles you aren’t going to destroy its value. Candidly, some tick on these motors is pretty normal. Mine starts to tick when the oil has some age -...

If the manual for the HO requires premium and you don’t use it, if there is a problem, however unlikely, related to fuel quality they could likely download the ignition data and give you a problem on the warranty. If the manual states recommended then you have more latitude and less concern...

Quality wise, the factory exhaust will likely be far superior to 90 percent of what you can buy in the aftermarket.

Follow up: I did not use peroxide because I was caused about color change - peroxide has gotten on bathroom face cloths and caused them to alter color. However, I did use the Mopar Total Clean product and with a damp rag and the stains seem to be gone. Hopefully this is of use to someone...

Thank you. As far as replacing the headliner, I want to simplify things as much as possible to reduce the chances of further damage. My guess is that they can replace the rear window without completely removing the headliner. I could be wrong about that and if I am it would change my analysis.

I discovered water stains on the headliner above the rear window, in both corners. I have a 2020 Ram. Called the dealer and they were familiar with the issue, and it is covered under the extended warranty. However, I would like to know if anyone has a good way to clean the water stains from...
