The connector most likely has a rubber gasket within the connector. Do you really think that Chrysler would spend millions to engineer a vehicle that would lack such a feature? Especially if the connector is in a location that could make it exposed to water.
And to having issues with your truck not being able to drive through a river, that's not what they're designed to do. May I suggest an amphibious vehicle?

I don't doubt that they are hermetically sealed connectors, it's still a dumb place to put a connector in my mind. Also, this forum is full of stories about folks who's trucks start acting weird out of the blue and often it's moistness or weather related.
On the other hand, all manufacturers do this kind of thing for the sake of saving money during assembly. I personally have never had problems with my truck or any of the other ones, except when my lab chewed up the wiring harness going to the trans.
To the OP, this is a great truck, the best I've ever owned.
