2016 Ram 1500 Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors) Problems

“On 12/23/2017 while traveling down a state route at 55 MPH I tried to roll the drivers side window down, window detached from the clips and fell all the way down causing me to to take my focus, and eyes off the road and swerve towards the center line. Vehicle was taken to the local dodge dealer to have the window put back in the clips. On 12/30/2017 the vehicle did the same exact thing. Again took back to the dealer and had to have window put back in the clips.”

“Attempted to roll down driver's side window in my 2016 Ram 1500 crew cab sport. The window didn't move but made a sound like it was frozen.

I almost wrecked the truck as it scared me and was very loud. I had to bring the truck back to the dealer to have reattach the window to the cheap plastic clips that it seperated from. …”

The first time, the window went off track while driving on the highway. The window stayed up for an additional 10 minutes then fell into the door while the vehicle was in motion. The 2-3 occurances, the vehicle was in drive, but stopped when it came off track. …”
