In theory if you get one built Nov or later. Mine has been at the dealer 22 days and counting.

Yeah, no issues with my RST, which was built 1 Feb 2019. 

 

I've pressure washed the truck 3x in the past month, and it's been in some very heavy rain 2-3x here in DFW, too. No leaks.

That is the biggest reason why I don't buy newly redesigned cars within six months. Nine months should be fine.. it was the same thing with the F-150, leaking sunroofs, minor issues, etc., with the 2015 models. 2016 models were way better.

Mine was built in February 2019 and I am not having any issues with the rear window but I am having issues in other areas though.

Yeah same thing with the new 2019 Ram's. Lots of water leaks and other issues.

GM does have a bulletin out to repair the leaking rear window and the fixes range from sealing the top of the window in place, resealing the entire window after removal and reinstalling that window  to installing a new window. Now each action there is usually some after effects ie scratch trim and paint, poor workmanship etc.

Had mine sealed at the dealership today after noticing a leak yesterday. Survived its first rain storm, we will see how it holds up

I traded my 2019 rst in for a leftover 2019 ltz they had on the lot. The build date is january 2019 mexico build. 3500miles. fine so far. I dont have much faith though. I am not worried though because my dealership always take care of me.

Seems stupid to start another rear window leak thread when one already is going just fine. ?

      Help purchasing a touch screen digitizer

      By mark249 · Posted

      Brought my 2015 Colorado into the dealership to check my touch screen issues, had that ghost touch thing happening. They said I needed a new touch screen and they could either order me one for $500. The lady at the service deck was nice enough to tell me I could order a touch screen online for less, she did stipulate that the touch screen had to be factory OEM, you can't pair an aftermarket screen to my radio seeing it was 2015, it had to be a GM factory OEM only. I found a few on Amazon and Ebay by the numbers on the back of the old screen, DJ080PA-01A GM# 22740886, Some said "OEM" in the description and others just said "Replacement". Would a replacement be the same as a OEM as long as it had the same numbers on the back of the screen? In some of the descriptions they also show different brand names but same numbers, is that an issue?

      I have both but typically use the 4 legged walker (wheels on front, ski's on back).   The four wheeler is starting to be used on "longer" outdoor walks.  The 4 legged walker is particularly helpful in practicing good walking posture.  Both of my knees are at different stages of recovery and I'm trying to not develop poor habits.  I can actually manage with a cane but it's very difficult not to favor one leg over the other.  My PT recommends I continue with my 4 legged walker for a while.  Yesterday was four weeks since my last knee replacement and I'm excited about my progress to date.  It has been a hell of a rough journey so far but it is exciting to witness  systematic and continuous improvement.  I went for years watching the decline of my "mobility".  It seems that everyday now I am alerting my wife to something I can do now that I couldn't a day or two ago!  I encourage anyone facing the prospect of knee replacement to share any concerns with others who have had the surgery.  It isn't an instant fix but rather is a considerable amount of short term pain for long term gain.  Recovery time and pain levels vary for individuals post surgery but the end results are typically very positive and I've never encountered anyone regretting having had the surgery.

      The lifter issue can be dealt with by shorter oil changes and quality oil IMO.

      Wiring Help, Please

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      I'm putting in an A-pillar pod/gauges, and I'm asking if anybody can identify a (preferably) fuse for a switched power and illumination circuit on the driver's side interior fuse panel. Offhand, everything I checked with a test light was constant-hot, and I'd much rather uses a piggyback fuse. I can certainly find a wire, but I'd rather not half-tap.   Thanks in advance for any help.
