WE BOUGHT A 2017 RAM 1500 ON APRIL 29, 2017. ON DEC 20, 2017, WE TOOK OUR TRUCK TO CARMAN DODGE AND WAS TOLD THAT WE NEEDED A WHOLE NEW WIPER UNIT (WIPER ASSEMBLY UNIT). THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER OUR WARRANTY. WE HAD THE TRUCK FOR LESS THAN 8 MONTHS. PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME HOW THIS PIECE OF STEEL WOULD BREAK AND NOT BE COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THE PART WAS "BROKEN" AND IT'S NOT A DEFECT. AFTER SPENDING AN HOUR ON THE PHONE WITH CHRYSLER, THEY STILL REFUSE TO COVER THIS. I HAD TO PAY $390 FOR THIS NEW PART/INSTALLATION. IT'S BEYOND ME HOW THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED A DEFECT AND WHY THIS WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY.
