“Passenger side storage well was completely filled with water. Went unnoticed for unknown number of days. Took vehicle into crown dodge of fayetteville. They acknowledged the growing number of complaints on the same issue. Replaced 3rd brake light, they tried telling me that all door weather strips were worn and needed replaced. Dealership did not look for, find or fix water damage to the seats, carpet or body panels. This is the second incident with water damage in the same spot while I have owned this vehicle.”
NHTSA complaint #11192470, filed 2019-03, 50,000 miles“Stereo not working - flashes Ram logo and xm logo, then tries to update. Nothing happens and no controls work. Dealer wants 1800. To replace. Drivers side lumbar not working, dealer said seat back needs replacing. Hard to believe these need to be done on a 3 yr old vehicle with 44k miles on it. Neither are safety items, however many are having the same issue with the radios in these vehicles.”
NHTSA complaint #11113078, filed 2018-07, 37,000 miles“I noticed a stale smell coming from the back of the cab that would come and I would encounter a stale smell that would come and go away. I googled these if anyone else with the same truck was having this issue. I came across someone and they stated to check underneath the back seat and sure enough it was wet from left to right. I think it is coming from the the rear body exhaust vents that are not sealing properly.”
