2019 Ram 1500 Structure

1 The vehicle’s dashboard upper trim panel (leather covering and stitching) has failed. The leather is lifting and separating from the dashboard surface, and the stitching is coming undone. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. 2. The lifting and peeling leather creates a safety concern. The leather separation is present at all times and continues to lift from the dashboard. The condition becomes significantly worse during hot and humid weather, as the material expands further. This can obstruct the driver’s forward or peripheral vision, including blind spots, reducing the ability to clearly see passengers, other vehicles, or road hazards. Additionally, if the material continues to detach, loose sections could interfere with steering wheel components or dashboard controls, creating a distraction or potentially affecting safe vehicle operation. 3. Yes, the issue has been inspected and confirmed by a dealer. The dealer acknowledged the dashboard leather separation and stitching failure. Similar issues have also been reported in other vehicles of the same make and model. 4. The issue has been inspected and confirmed by an authorized dealer. It has not been inspected by police or insurance representatives. The manufacturer has not directly inspected the vehicle at this time. 5. There were no warning lamps or dashboard messages prior to this issue. The first symptom was visible lifting of the leather and loosening of the stitching on the dashboard. The condition has progressively worsened over time and becomes more pronounced during hot and humid weather, although the separation is present regardless of weather conditions.

Issue with rear door not latching closed when temperatures are below freezing. When attempting to close the door it will just bounce back open.

The dashboard on the 2019 Ram 1500 Limited has a problem with the leather dash covering becoming separated from the dashboard itself bubbling up. Besides looking horrible, this may cause a safety issue with the airbag deployment from the dashboard. I was told that people have been able to get their dashboard repaired because of that reason but not just for the bubbling up of the leather from the dash which RAM tells you isn't even covered by their warranty on a $67,000 vehicle which sounds unacceptable. I know there are a lot of complaints about the RAM dash leather delamination issue where it separates from the substrate.

Failure point - Cracked back glass frame and gasket which allowed water to leak into the cab and onto the radio frequency module causing it to corrode. When raining the vehicle started on its own while I was sitting inside it. While driving to the mechanic the vehicle wouldn’t shift out of first gear. While driving multiple service systems lights came on along with service airbag system warning. The issue was confirmed by the dealership. The dealership replaced the failed parts along with the third break light for no apparent reason. There was never a mention of there being issue with it. Warning lamps were on however the lamps wouldn’t stay on due to the electrical issue.

Rear window, third brake light & sxm antenna all leak into the cab.. Not covered under warranty. All ram trucks have this issue. Should be recalled

The back window is leaking water. Possibly from 3rd brake light or the back window seal. Dealership said factory warranty has expired but have extended warranty on it. They won't cover the replacement window seal because they deemed it has routine maintenance. Back seat and floor are soaked. Truck is 4 years old. They want me to pay for all the repairs. From my understanding this year and model of truck had numerous complaints about this issue for years.
