Rear window leak

[My1stHemi]

Here is a picture of the RF hub under the vent.
There is one under the center console as well.

I may cover mine in the future to prevent any water intrusion as a fail safe backup.

Thanks for the pic. I wondered exactly where it's mounted on the back wall but haven't had time or motivation to take our truck apart LOL.

Old reference picture I had when I added sound deadening to the rear of the cab to eliminate a rattle/buzz in the rear bulkhead.

My truck goes in December 4th for a water leak test. Rear glass was already replaced a year ago, and it's leaking already, so hopefully after it fails this new water leak test and it gets replaced again, it will stay fixed. (I doubt it though)

They are using a new design since June.

I got mine done last January. We had a significantly wet winter last year and then Hurricane Hillary in August and mine has been fine.

Received 2 letters from FCA, they have extended warranty for the window and CHMSL.

I thought the RF hub was the large box

It is.

If you have etorque you’ll also have a battery pack back there too. It might be bigger than the RF hub

Yep. Mine got fried from the leak. 6 weeks waiting for parts.

It is.

I got confused when the other poster said it was under the vents. I did put a piece of gorilla tape acting as flashing over the large box in case it did leak on it it would hopefully roll off. I do have a tiny amount of water running down the drivers side corner not soaking the headliner or floor so hope its not too bad

My frame was cracked in the corner, causing a similar leak.

Rear window frame.

Post from about a year ago.

Rear window was replaced 1-6-2020 under warranty.
It has now developed the usual crack next to the slider, not all the way thru to the outside yet so no leak there.
But is is leaking alright...
Took some effort to find this (soapy water and positive pressure did not pinpoint it, due to operator error mainly)
Anyway, upper drivers side corner, have not seen anyone reporting this location for a crack so far.

My replacement frame cracked in the corners just like that.

The large box appears to be referred to as a receiver for the keyless system. I don’t have a part number so I can verify 100%, only from images.

I used the wrong terms. What I was referring to are antennas not hubs.
