"The Ram does not age well"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

There has been a severe leak on the passenger side which leaves at least an inch or rainwater in the "well" after a rainstorm.

After my mechanic pulled the seat out and rug up, it was discovered the rear window (above the bed) seals are defective.

My local dealership has confirmed this is a common problem with the Ram Pickup however, there has been no recall.

General comments?

I called the Dodge Customer Service toll-free number and was advised there was no recall for this problem.

I have never been satisfied with the service from my dealership in California (I live in NJ now), but I plan on pursuing this matter so I may be reimbursed for re-sealing the rear window.

Hello.

We too have the same problem rain leak on passenger floorboard, however our dealer replaced the seal (window) and the entire rug when the pass seal didn't work. This clearly is a defect and should be corrected. You can have dodge reimburse you for the cost of the repair.
