Consumer Description
The driver side window continues to not work properly in cold weather until it completely fell down into the door frame area. It was 7° outside when this finally happened. Driving with the window down at the drivers side is dangerous and can lead to us wrecking. And we have small children (a 1 year and 8 year old). Fortunately our children were not in the truck, but now the window will not work properly and we have to fear it will fall again while our children are in the truck. Our baby’s car seat is behind the driver seat and would definitely have freezing air blasting on her. We live in Wyoming with extreme winter weather. We should be able to feel safe while driving and be able to depend on our vehicle. I have read numerous reports about this same issue happening, but apparently Dodge/Ram has done nothing to help it’s customers with this factory default.
