The two are unrelated. My sunroof had never leaked in cold weather or at all for that matter. But my winters only get down to the 20s (f) sometimes.
I won't buy any kind of vehicle with sunroofs of any kind as they're not really needed when you have automatic climate controls and too many stories of leaks and failures. I don't know if they're related or not, but I have no interest in sunroofs or convertibles...but that's just me.

My sunroof hasn't leaked and I live in a cold climate, (North Idaho).

Just got my 23 GT Rebel in December. I live near Chicago and haven't had any issues with mine leaking.

I avoided the sunroof, but still have a leak. It took the dealer six weeks and two attempts to fix the rear window leak on my truck. First they tried the 3rd break light, didn't work. Then they replaced the entire rear window.
There is no escaping the possibility of a leak in these trucks. For what it's worth, my old Ford did the same. You can go to other vehicle forums and find the same issue with water leaks in lots of different makes and models. Roll the dice.

Not getting the sunroof causes that leak

The only reason I will get a sunroof is resale. Some people want them, but I've never had the need. I had them in a couple cars, just because they were in stock, what the dealer ordered. Lucky to open once a year. You lose 3 inches of headroom.

Not with the panoramic. Most sunroofs pop up now so they don't effect headroom as much. I'm 6'5" and have zero issues with headroom in my Ram

The one I ordered and refused had it, less headroom than my last one without it. All sunroofs take up headroom.

I was looking in my truck after your last comment and thinking, how much headroom do you need? How big is your head? I'm 6 foot and have at least 6 inches or more between my head and the roof. I couldn't imagine anyone needing more. This truck had more headroom even with a sunroof than any truck I've had.

This last one was an Elite. Maybe the suede headliner has a different shape. All I know, is my head touched the headliner until I lowered the seat all the way, then barely cleared. Every other Ram I have owned, I had 3 more inches of clearance.

Even if you never open the sunroof it is amazing in these Rams. Really opens up the space and floods it with light making the cab feel more spacious than it already is. Feeling like having it darker in the cab? Just hit the button and close the shade and it's like you're in a different truck!
I am 6'1" and my head isn't even close to the headliner.

Have you been in a Ram with a sunroof? My wifes XF has a sunroof as well and there's no loss of head room in either

Unless you're sitting on a milk crate on top of your seat, the sunroof isn't impacting head room, even Shaq fits

I have the panoramic sunroof and I do really love it. I don't open it much, but having it for just getting that extra sunlight through is a plus. With my 21 RAM Laramie, the damn sunroof started having a leak. The dealer ordered another gasket to fix the problem and I am taking it in next week. This all comes just in time for the exhaust manifold having an issue now and my truck sounds like we just made the exhaust a straight pipe.
