I took my 2020 Ram into the dealership because the truck wouldn't start and the key fobs stopped working. They told me it was due to a leak around the 3rd brake light assembly that corroded the receiver wireless control module. Although I had the extended warranty, I did a little research and found that this is a known issue and the warranty on this part has been extended to 10 years/ 150,000 miles.
This letter is to inform you that the warranty period on your vehicle’s Center High Mounted Stop
Lamp (CHMSL) has been extended to 10 years/ 150,000 miles. This warranty extension on the Center High Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL) applies to select 2019 - 2021 RAM 1500 Pickup vehicles. Our records show that you own or lease one of the vehicles affected by this warranty extension. We are extending the Center High Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL) warranty period because some of the affected vehicles within the above-referenced population may experience water on the headliner, water at the back of the cab or a leak from the third brake/cargo light/CHMSL. If you are experiencing any of these conditions now, or if you experience them in the future, simply contact your dealer to have the appropriate repair performed.

However, my dealer only covered the replacement of the CHMSL. Luckily I had the extended warranty to help cover the cost of the "receiver wireless control module". Even the dealer was surprised that this part isn't covered under the extended warranty because it failed due to the water leaking in. However, if you already paid for this repair, you may be eligible to receive reimbursement. Visit www.fcarecallreimbursement.com to submit an online reimbursement request. Good luck to all
