Awesome! Thank you! My 4th gen just started leaking on both left and right sides. Going to follow these steps exact, and keep my fingers 🤞🏽
Nice job shooting/explaining this fix, which I'll be doing tomorrow on my 2019 Laramie Longhorn. Just a quick question - in the first video you removed the blue painters tape after 10-15 minutes before the Permatex dried completely. In this video you said to wait overnight before removing the tape. Which do you recommend? I'll be doing the entire rear window since I have leaks/cracks on both sides. Thanks in advance and thanks again for make clear, concise videos.
Thank you! You can remove it from 15-30 minutes. Leaving it overnight was letting the permetex completely dry off before I showed the water penetration test :)
2019 rebel. I followed exactly your steps and I still have a leak. Any the other suggestions? Should I redo it again?
Hi, you should verify where the leak is coming from first. If it is indeed the top of the glass this would of resolved it.
Areas you should check for water intrusion:
-roof antenna
-third brake light
-sliding glass square seal
-2x square air outlets behind seats
Is this applicable to 2023 rams! Did Doge fix this in the newer 2023 model?
Nah they didn’t fix it same thing for 23s
I could be wrong here but, I’m pretty sure you shouldn’t seal that channel. That channel flows on the outside of the glass and drains and water that comes in. You have water coming in from the actual light gasket. But if it worked for you than that’s good.
Now that the channel is sealed the water coming down from the third brake light would over flow from the top of our new sealant
In time did the silicone yellow at all or color change that looks bad. Great fix.
First year so far so good, no one complained of permetex windshield silicone turning yellow on a Google search. Hopefully this will last, no ones noticed I have silicone along my back glass just yet
Bright 😮
Will it void the warranty if we put the Silicone on?
I don’t see how silicone would void the warranty
@@WeekndGarage thank you. I will bring it in next week and hope the dealership takes care of it without saying silicone void the warranty
@@kd221 Itll be fine just dont mention it
Did this finally fix the issue?
Yep, actually in my previous video it fixed the issue. This was more of a preventative measure
