Water Leak??

[Eatonpcat]

It appears my 2020 Ram 2500 6.4L with 69,000 may be leaking water...Noticed a softball size spot on the driveway this morning. It was dark so I can only assume it is water as it really didn't seem to have a color or much of a smell. Also seems like something is spraying my windshield as I drive down the highway. Obviously, I will investigate further when I get home tonight. Any preliminary thoughts or like experiences any of you can share.

Where abouts do you see it under the truck?

If it is spraying your windshield, it won't be hard to spot.

I popped the hood on my 2020 2500 the other day to look for a possible leak and I bet at least a pint of water drained out both corners of my hood once it was raised. No puddles since.

Center of truck maybe a foot or 18" from the front of engine. It may be related to an a/c as it doesn't appear to have leaked today.

Yes sir, just opened my hood and had this happen...I think this explains the water on windshield. First time my hood filled up.

Ok if it was humid overnight maybe it just didn’t evaporate.

It has a slight oil feel to it and is pinkish in color!

I cant keep up with the recalls but could it be that trans tube issue?

What color is the coolant in the Hemi? Do they get the purple as well?

Appears to be orangeish red

I believe that recall is for the diesels with a 6 speed trans.

Pretty much sure it is coming from the water pump...Looks like a PITA to replace!!

Should be purple Mopar 10 year.

Replaced my water pump back when my 2007 1500 Hemi was still under the Power Train Warranty. Then found out it was covered by warranty. duh. Call your dealer and ask if it is covered.

I am over the 60,000 mile power train warranty, but thanks for pointing this out
