    Took it in to the dealer, they tested and confirmed the cracks and LEAKING rear 'backlite' window. Service advisor was going to charge me $210 to evaluate/diagnose,..once they found it leaking he said he felt 'bad', and that it was only going to be $100,..then he said 'ah' I don't think I'll...

    RF Hub fried from leaking window.

    Can you clarify...Why would your truck not be covered by the TSB? What reason did the dealer give, ie- Build Date, Not A Sliding Window, Incorrect Sales Code...Or?? The reason will help me and others to understand what other obstacles may be encountered...Thanks In Advance.

    RF Hub fried from leaking window.

    My 2020 rear window is exactly the same as this photo on the outside of the truck...But the inside has a plastic frame where I found 2 cracks.

    RF Hub fried from leaking window.

    I am taking my 2020 1500, with rear window slider, into the dealer this week regarding LEAKS. I noticed a water drip line on the 'top inside' of the rear window which I thought may indicate the 3rd 'upper' brake light leaking. Then while investigating I noticed (small, very hard to see) 2...

    Loud noise when reversing on cold start

    Well, the dealer duplicated the symptom and installed the Anti-moan kit (They didn't have it in-stock..so took 2 days). As a TSB is 'not a recall' this may have been a full-charge expense if it wasn't still under warranty, or you can buy the kit (cheap $60+) and install it yourself (looks...

    2023 Bighorn 5.7L first oil change

    2020 4x4 5.7....I've tried the many methods, ie ziplok bags (the can rip when maneuvering/removing filter), poke hole in filter bottom, diverting, etc., they all still make a MESS!. I use the larger filters so that also makes it more difficult. The issue is that, once the filter is unscrewed...

    Brake noise when backing up - 2019 1500 DT

    2020 1500 4X4...Appears there are smart, informed and reasonable dealers/service dept's and then there are...THE OTHER ONE'S! My dealer (Santa Barbara, CA) said they knew nothing about it and could not find the TSB...So I emailed it them and then even printed it and took it to their location...

    2015 Third brake light leak Laramie 1500

    Very Interesting. Is there any type of 'reference' number or code on the letter regarding the 3rd brake light warranty extension? I wonder if it is for Canada only...or also the USA?? Also wonder if it includes any water 'damage' to the head liner or other possible affected components?

    Unhappy with 1500 towing. Need Help

    Regarding made in Mexico...After I purchased it and while crawling in, under & around my 2020 1500, 5.7L, ETorque, 4x4, Crew cab, to familiarize myself...EVERYTHING had/has a label that said 'Made In Mexico'. So, it is not only the 2500's or others.
