The rear frame around the rear cab window cracked and is leaking water. This is on a Ram 1500 that is less than a year old with only 5,500 miles on it. There has not been any unusual use or damage that would have caused this to happen. Many other owners are having problems with this exact same crack and water leak. Replacement windows don't seem to fix the issue and crack again.
I have owned my 2020 Ram 1500 crew cab 4X4 for 8 months. The plastic frame that surrounds the rear window glass has cracked and caused the window to leak. This occurs both when the truck is in motion or is parked. This is a common problem that needs to be investigated because water can seep into the rear airbags causing the airbags to malfunction. Also with a crack in the rear glass frame the glass may explode causing harm to the back seat passengers.

After taking the truck through a car wash and bringing home to vacuum, I noticed water in the front driver's side floor. I noticed condensation under the floor mat too. After pulling out the kick panel and rolling the carpet back, the metal floor was wet and the pad was saturated. I took it to the dealer and it was reported back to me that there were seams in the body that were not filled.
