Default Ram Box Leaks :(

I'm sure the Ram Box lids aren't supposed to leak, right? They were advertised as "waterproof" if I remember correctly. Has anyone else had any issues with theirs leaking?

That is correct, there is a RRT for warped lids on earlier builds.

I have had my rambox through high pressure automatic car washes and not a single drop got into the boxes.

yeah, the right side lid on my rambox was holding water but not leaking into the rambox.Took to dealer and water leak guy said there was no seal in lid and also leaking around lock cylinder.He repaired and no other leaks noticed.

No leaks myself, but there are times where the lids need to be slammed pretty good in order to be close tight (clue - look for lid to be out-of-line with the surrounding rail caps). Not closed tight could be source of your leak.
