Thankfully I've already done enough research about leaking roof in the crew cab rams. Most theories have been the 3rd brake light or clogged roof rails. I have a 2009 ram 1500 Laramie crew. I've resealed the 3rd brake light myself with silicone. And check most water paths. So far it still leaks on my drivers side passenger roof where my headliner speaker is.

I did take it to a dealership to have it water/pressure tested, 3rd brake light, and sunroof and glass all passed. What else can this be.

There is a body seam on the roof in that area, I believe.

Apparently not enough. Yes, it's an ongoing battle for many truck owners, not just Ram. Sealing fixes the issue or you keep searching to find a fix, that's just the way it is. The joys of owning and maintaining something you don't have ultimate control over. :favorites13:

My '09 had a problem with the roof-body seam on the passenger side. Thankfully it was replaced under warranty.
