Brand new RAM died in the middle of the road!
Thank you very much! Now I only have to figure out why it didn't work! I'm thinking maybe it's because I didn't have the brake depressed.- EcoDieselDog

I will check my manual. When it says "lock" I would have to think that means you can't pull the lever out without releasing it. I was able to, as was the guy in the video. Not to mention the tow truck driver that came to pick up the truck. I do appreciate your help, and will check my manual...- EcoDieselDog

Looking closely at the video, it doesn't look like there is a lock. I didn't think there was one on mine, but I have not gone back in to double check. Maybe this is new for 2023?- EcoDieselDog

Here is a video of someone pulling out the orange pull cord WITHOUT using a release tab. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMmEdNFRwEM This is exactly what happened to me. I know it's not possible, because that's not what the manual says, but....- EcoDieselDog

OK, just got my truck back. The dealership said that a connecter had come loose, causing the battery to die. The charged it up, check all connecters for corrosion, etc.., and I just drove it home, no issues. I don't really believe it was a loose connector, but I'll go with it. Got it back, and...- EcoDieselDog

Like a said, it's a VERY light tint. If you weren't looking for it you woudn't even notice it.- EcoDieselDog

Yeah, I did it specifically for the UV protection. Have had issues with skin cancer, and every little bit helps.- EcoDieselDog

I did not see a release, so no I did not push it. But from watching the video, if you don't push the release, you can't pull the cord and move the device out. I pulled on the cord and the device came out like it does in the video. Just didn't do anything. In my defense, I was in the middle of...- EcoDieselDog

I'll have to take a look at the orange pull cord when I get my truck back. I don't know if the truck has an "electric shifter" or not. I was able to pull the cord out with no issue - it just didn't do anything.- EcoDieselDog

Thanks for the tip on watching the headliner. I do have the eTorque. I also thought it was strange that the orange pull rope behind the panel below the electronic parking brake didn't work. I thought that was suppose to allow you to move the truck even when everything else quit working.- EcoDieselDog

I had my last truck done the same way (front driver and passenger windows and the windshield) by the same place five years ago and didn't have any problems. The windshield is barely tinted, but it keeps out a lot of UV rays. If it is the issue I'd think it was pretty rare - these guys do a LOT...- EcoDieselDog

I'll definitely go back to the tint shop and let them know if that turns out to be the issue. I'm just hoping the issue gets fixed and I can get the new truck back on the road. The dealer said it would be a couple of days before they could get to it.- EcoDieselDog

Yeah, that's just what I was thinking. I had no idea they used that much water when tinting a window. The place I went to is the top rated place in town. Guess all I can do is see how it turns out.- EcoDieselDog
