RAM 1500 2026 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
low
On Saturday April 25 while driving my leased Ram 1500 Tungsten with the radio volume turned all the way down (no sound), I was changing stations on SiriusXM using the steering wheel button when the volume suddenly went to maximum. It was easily over 100db and would not respond to the volume control knob and continued blasting until I turned the radio/center console power off. I took the vehicle to the dealership the following Monday, but they did not find any "codes" indicative of what may have caused the problem. While this may not appear to be a serious issue, it could have easily caused an accident given my startled reaction to the very loud sound; and one of my ears still hurts five days later. I have not tried to reproduce the issue.

RAM 1500 2026 VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY
high
The contact owns a 2026 Ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving 35 MPH, the rear panoramic sunroof exploded and shattered, causing shards and pieces of glass to fall inside the vehicle, onto the driver's side headrest, armrest, and on the center console. The contact closed the shade cover and continued driving to the residence, where the vehicle was parked. While the contact’s wife was searching through the vehicle, she sustained a cut on the right forearm but did not seek medical assistance. The contact had not sustained any injuries. The contact stated that while driving to the dealer later, the shattered sunroof glass flew off and fell onto the tonneau cover. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the contact was informed that an assessment was being made to determine whether the failure had occurred due to an external impact. The contact was advised that it was not yet determined whether the repair would be covered under warranty. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 3,900.
