Time to find another service option, some dealers just s*ck, I hated the Toyota dealer service I got, been happy the last two have been Silverado’s.

You don't need a mechanic, you need a lawyer.

Was updated today they claim they found and fixed the issue

The 3rd brake light leaked which fried the RF unit . So the water intrusion theory seems correct might have it back by Friday waiting for new 3rd light

Thankfully all under warranty

What is this RF unit that got fried? The third brake light seems a long distance from all your electrical systems and one would think it would be isolated enough to not shut down the whole system....

yes the rf unit was Toast that's what i was told. that the water traveled an smoked the RF unit .

still waiting on the call to pick it up .. because if they leave it outside this weekend it will fry again

did a search of RF hub saw this in a ram forum .. from last year


Since it seems to be a very common problem to have the rear window leak and often soaking the rf hub making it so you can’t even start the truck, The rf hub is on the rear wall below the window.
