Default RAM 1500 Sport questions (2015 with 17k miles)

Hello -

This is my first post on this forum. I have a couple of questions about my new truck. It's a 1500 with the Hemi 5.7.

1. I have some streaking on the inside of the windshield. Almost reminds me of my old 1978 Ford Granada when the heater core went bad only it's not as bad. But it does have a "greasey" feel/appearance. Has anyone else experienced this sort of thing?

2. Has anyone figured out what bulbs to replace the puddle lights with? None of my trucks in the last 30 years had these lights so I can manage without them. But I think they're kind of cool and would like to get them working better if there's a solution.

3. Is there anyway to change up the ringtone, voice, etc. on the Uconnect?


Thanks in advance to anyone offering suggestions!!

#1 Sounds like it is a pin hole leak in the heater core as per your line of thinking.

#2 The puddle lights have to be replaced as a unit or module. I haven't noticed if anybody has posted any bulb replacement for them.

#3 Sorry can't really help here, but I do think you can change the ringtones, check your manual.
