2022 Ram 1500 body problems

Filed Nov 8, 2026 · Body · FL

Water enters the cab at both upper rear corners at the rear window frame with every rain, and the rear defroster has failed (likely due to corrosion from the water leak). My concern is where the water terminates. The rear cab wall behind the second-row seat carries the RF hub and the 48V eTorque battery pack. Water intrusion along this path is the leading documented cause of RF hub failure on these trucks, producing key-not-detected faults, TPMS faults, and no-start conditions. That module is VIN-locked, so there is no inexpensive remedy once it corrodes. There were no warning signs other than the rear defroster stopping, and further inspection uncovered a water leak. The dealer confirmed the leak but denied it under the extended warranty.

The sun visor (driver and passenger) break with normal use. This can cause the visor to suddenly drop into the drivers field of view or potentially strike the driver in the head depending on if it is being used in the standard down position or if the extension bar is being used on the front or side position. This could cause the driver to have a physical reaction even if the risk of injury from the strike is relatively small, thus causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle. Mine fell down into my field of view while I was stopped at a red light, when I attempted to lower the visor. Fortunately I was stoped at a stop light and was able to remove the obstruction prior to moving the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving approximately 45-50 MPH in the rain, children in the rear of the vehicle informed the contact that the rear window was allowing water to leak into the vehicle. The water reached several electrical systems, including the rear braking assembly and the third brake light seal above the cab of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who informed the contact that the window and window seals needed to be replaced. The contact decided not to repair the vehicle out of pocket because of TSB Number: 23/098/23 Warranty Ext XL1, which addressed the failure. The dealer informed the contact that the parts for the repair were the same parts that needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not covered under TSB Number: 23/098/23 Warranty Ext XL1 because the TSB expired in 2021. The failure mileage was 53,467.

I was driving down the highway, in light rain around 9pm, very little road traffic, when all of a sudden the forward glass of my sunroof exploded, it sounded like a gun shot. But then I heard wind noise and realized the glass on my sunroof just imploded towards the sky. Very alarming, no other sun roof issues previously on this vehicle. Safe lite replaced the sun roof, but it took several weeks for mopar/ram dealership to get the part in. It seems online I’m not the only person with a ram sunroof that’s exploded spontaneously.

Folded down the drivers side sun visor and it fell from the roof and was hanging by the wires that control the garage door opener. I could not see the road in front of me and had to pull over and push the stem back up in the bracket and leave it in the up position for it to stay in place.

The visors on both sides will just detach and unexpectedly fall from the roof of the truck while you are driving. They are fairly big and when they detach and fall it poses a risk of crashing. I have researched this and it seems to be a problem with many Ram trucks. I am very surprised there has not been a recall of this hazard yet. The drivers side visor fell off last June 2025. I was able to get it repaired at a Dodge dealership at no charge as it was under warranty still.
