I have a 2019 3500 diesel crew cab, long bed truck. About 65k miles on it.
I am experiencing water leak(s) at the back of the cab. Water drips from each rear cab corner on to the back seats.
I DO NOT have a sunroof or any other item on the roof of the cab in that area.
Cant get into a dealership to look at the problem for a month.

Hoping someone on this forum has any idea what's causing the problem. Just noticed this about two weeks ago.
Any remedy ideas would be welcome. Any experience with insurance or extended warranties covering a fix would be welcome.
I am currently in the Seattle, WA area where it rains ALL the time, so vehicle is tarped now.

You might have better luck in the Homepage - HD Rams forum. This is the 5th Gen 1500 Rams site.

But I'm not sure if the HDs suffer from the same issues as the 1500s. Cracked rear window frame or leaking CHMSL.
 
Thanks for your reply. I just posted the same message on the HD Rams forum.
I posted it here because our research shows 1500's have the same or similar problems.
 
Your HD would have more in common with 4th gen 1500's than with 5th gens. Lots of issues with the CHMSL on 4th gens and not so much the cracked rear window frame. I have also read about leaks in the rear slider area on 4th gens but I have no experience with that.
