Visible moisture and condensation inside of center racetrack tail light assembly has caused led tail lights to flicker (shorting out). This is a safety issue as the led tail lights are necessary in order to see the rear of the vehicle at nighttime or dark days.

Noticed water in both sides of taillight lens of tailgate. Had truck in for oil change at dealer and showed svc manager water. Repair tech found "stress crack" in taillight assembly alllowing water to infiltrate tailllight lens. Svc manager said "stress crack" could be caused by closing tailgate. There is no indication of physical damage, ie.,as in tailgate being hit or in an accident.

Water is pooling into the tail lights. The "racetrack " section of the tail light is now flickering and staying off. The replacement is over $1000. The "racetrack" tail light has to be replaced which includes back up camera. You should be able to purchase those components separately. I spent a lot of money for a vehicle that I believed would be dependable and not give me such bizarre issues. I don't know if the water gets in while riding down the road or while stationary

Water continues to enter the rear race track tail light and is not covered under warranty. Once the water fills the light the led goes out and must be replaced for safety (has not gone out on mine yet). My lights are sealed and there is no damage to them yet there is water entering the inside of the lights. I am unable to see if the water enters the lights during motion or when stationary.

Second time water has gotten into a tail light. First was the drivers side which has been replaced. When it was replaced one of the mechanics dropped it and chipped a corner and have yet to order a replacement. Also, the middle "track light" is starting to fill up with water. Ridiculous for a $45,000 vehicle.

After purchase, immediately we started having problems with headlight not working, then a rear light and brake light not working. Took in for recall on another part and they discovered it was the electrical, while driving and sitting at lights. Lights on dash, radio, headlights, etc, not work properly or all sudden decide not to work at all. We've taken it back now 5 times. Mechanic says the whole wiring harness is bad and cannot be repaired, but continues to say they called Chrysler for parts to try to repair. While my 83 yrs old dad who bought the car, left sitting at the dealer for 4-5 hours every trip and no rental vehicle available from enterprise or hertz. After sitting there 5 hours today, we had to leave vehicle. This time, we are ready to call attorney for lemon law in Missouri.
