2020 Ram 1500 Classic visibility/wiper problems

“The vehicle develops a severe film/haze on the interior windshield that cannot be adequately cleared during normal operation. At night, oncoming headlights and streetlights cause extreme glare and significantly impair visibility. The condition has resulted in headaches and dizziness while driving due to eye strain. Visibility is reduced to a dangerous level, creating a safety hazard and increasing the risk of a crash. Repair estimates exceed $2,000. With colder weather approaching, driving with the windows down is not a reasonable or safe workaround.”

“The HVAC heater core assembly failed internally. The machic mentioned that this componet is "going out" in these vehicals. He refered me to the dealership. This should be a recall. I was put at severe risk because the the vehicle had a sudden, severe loss of forward visibility while in motion. The failure caused an oily, chemical mist of ethylene glycol coolant to spray out of the defroster vents directly onto the windshield. This film could not be cleared by windshield wipers or standard defogging functions or whiping the windshield internally. It smeared across the glass, causing catastrophic blinding glare from oncoming headlights and traffic, creating an immediate and extreme risk of a collision. Simultaneously, the failure flooded the sealed cabin with toxic, atomized antifreeze fumes. Inhaling these chemical vapors caused immediate, acute coughing and dizziness while I was actively driving, physically impairing my ability to safely operate and control the vehicle and drastically increasing the risk of a collision Also, it was raining and I couldn't roll the windows down. Yes, the defect and cabin contamination were diagnosed by Priority One in Waterloo,…”

“A crack developed in the plastic frame of the rear sliding backlite window, allowing water to enter the vehicle cabin from the rear glass area. Water intrusion has been observed on the rear seating surfaces and interior trim during rain and snow events. The condition has been reproduced multiple times during precipitation and car washes. A dealership inspected the vehicle and performed a sealant repair following manufacturer guidance; however, the water leak persists and the crack remains visible. Water entering the passenger compartment presents potential safety risks, including moisture exposure near electrical components, mold growth, and occupant health concerns. Water has entered the rear seating area where child passengers ride. No warning lights or electronic alerts appeared prior to the condition. The issue appears related to a structural failure of the rear backlite frame seal. The condition remains unresolved and may worsen over time if not properly repaired. The component is available for inspection upon request.”

“The driver's side windshield wiper is not working because the wiper arm attachment (at the spindle) is stripped. The motor spindle rotates but the wiper does not wipe the windshield. Visibility during rain, snow or other dirt or mud being splattered on windshield during driving. No dealer interaction yet, just noticed today while out driving. No inspection by 3rd party. No warning indicators, lamps or messages.”

“In 2022, I had the dealer replace the driver's visor because it broke and was hanging down by its electrical connection. It was obstructing the drivers forward view. This repair was covered under the bumper to bumper warrantee. In 2025, the visor broke again exactly as before however, this time the repair will not be covered as a defect. Online, there are a lot of people who are having the exact same issue with their visors. I believe that this issue is a major safety issue because it distracts and blocks the drivers view and should become a recall issue”

“THE REARVIEW CAMERA ON THE VEHICLE DISPLAY A BLACK SCREEN IN PLACE OF THE REARVIEW IMAGE. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED BY THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES AND AFTER A WHILE THE REARVIEW CAMERA DISPLAY A BLACK SCREEN AGAIN. THIS IS AN ISSUE WHEN BACK PARKING OR JUST GETTING OUT FROM PARKING SPOT. ITS HARD TO SEE WHAT ITS BEHIND, SPECIALLY CHILDREN WALKING BEHIND IT. PLEASE I ASK TO LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE FURTHER SINCE I CONSIDER IT CAN PREVENT ANY FUTURE ACCIDENTS.”
