Tl* the contact owns a 2015 dodge durango. the contact stated that water leaked through a hole into the tail lights on both the driver and passenger sides. as a result, the lights short out. the dealer liccardi chrysler dodge ram (130 us-22, green brook township, nj 08812 (732) 752-7373) stated that since the 33,000 mile warranty had expired there was nothing they could do to cover the repairs. the whole track light unit would have to be replaced at a cost $2,500. the manufacturer provided the contact a complaint number and offered no further assistance. the failure mileage was 77,000.
The liftgate tail light assembly allows water to seep inside, pooling in the lighting assembly. this led to the rear lights shorting out and failing completely. after researching, this is a common problem that dodge continues to ignore; only offering to install a new assembly for the bargain price of $1200-1600 so that i will be visible from the rear to other drivers on the roadway.
Exterior tail light's interior gets flooded with water every time it rains. there is nothing abnormal about my vehicle, this is the second dodge durango i have owned (2015+) with the same exact issue.
The led back tail lights are not properly sealed, so water can leak into them and short out the lights, and cause electrical shortage.have tried to work with the dealership, and the chrysler corp., but since the vehicle is a 2015 model it is out of warranty. i feel this was a bad seal right out of the factory.
My rear led light bar is out. i looked and there is water inside of the light bar. there are gaps all around the light bar which is how the water is getting in. warranty is trying to deny coverage. this has to be a manufacturing issue. there is a lot of proper with the same issue that i am having.
