UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

This issue has not occurred to me yet, but I have seen many instances in my research of the issue of where the issue has occurred. I believe it should be looked at seriously because of the risks. The rear back window has a defect that allows a crack in the plastic frame of the window to allow water in from the outside of the truck. The water intrusion itself is not a safety issue, but the damage it can cause to the RF Module system that is mounted behind the back seat of the vehicle is a safety issue. If the leak becomes severe enough it can cause the module to short out or completely go out. This module controls the keyless start system. If the system were to short out while driving it could result in the vehicle turning off and the driver losing control of the electrical systems in the vehicle. RAM will only cover the replacement of the window under warranty, but many owner's don't even know of the issue. I didn't until I noticed the water all over my seats. RAM also only replaces the window with an exact replacement that will allow for the issue to reoccur.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

2019 Ram Ecodiesel 3.0. I was Driving back to work on Easter Sunday 2023 after visiting family. It was a 5 hour trip, I was halfway through when the engine started making a loud banging sound. I pulled over & the engine died and would not turn over. I am sure the engine threw a rod, two other driver stopped & asked if everything was ok because they could hear the engine noise from their cars when it happened. There were no check engine lights or messages before or during the engine failing. I had to get a tow truck & tow it to the nearest dealer. It has been at the dealer for 2 weeks, they still have not diagnosed a problem but said if it is the engine it is on backorder & they don't know when it will be fixed & they refuse to give me a loaner. The truck is still under powertrain warranty. Where is my consumer protection? It is beyond frustrating to pay big money for something & not have what you paid for. I bought the truck for reliable transportation & Ram refuses to give me another vehicle. I am still having to pay insurance & car tag fees for my truck while I wait for an answer from the dealer, I have no idea if they will warranty it or when the truck will be repaired. On a separate note there is also an open fuel pump recall on my truck that is close to a year old with no ETA on a fix. I did not purchase a vehicle with plans to never have the recall fixed, I had one RAM dealer in Laurel, MS tell me it was an unrepairable recall & they were not even interested in purchasing my truck or a trade in due to the recall before my engine failed.
