2010 Ram 2500 Fuel System Problems

Your fuel pump failed suddenly without any warning signs, leaving your truck unable to start when parked. A mechanic confirmed the failure and replaced the pump. The repair involved removing and replacing the fuel pump assembly.

IN DEC. 2014 I RECEIVED RECALL P65 / NHTSA 14V-635. CONTACTED FOLSOM LAKE DODGE IN FOLSOM, CA AND WAS TOLD "CORPORATE HAS NOT SENT US THE PARTS". CONTACT AGAIN IN FEBRUARY AND WAS TOLD NHTSA HAD NO AUTHORITY TO COMPEL THE DEALERSHIP TO HONOR THE RECALL AND THAT CORPORATE IS THE RESPONSIBLE PARTY AND THAT I SHOULD CONTACT CORPORATE...I WAS GIVEN A NUMBER TO CALL. CALLED THE NUMBER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE LOCAL DEALER WOULD BE SENT THE REQUIRED PARTS AND IT WOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF. JUNE I WENT TO THE DEALER IN PERSON AND WAS TOLD CONFIDENTIALLY THAT "WE ARE NEVER GOING TO GET THE PARTS". I WAS TOLD THAT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAD NEVER ENCOUNTERED THIS PARTICULAR RECALL PROBLEM AND NOT TO WORRY ABOUT IT. I AM SUM WHAT CONCERNED ABOUT USING MY VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY ON LONG HAULS WITH OUR TRAILER. I THERE ANY WAY FOR YOUR DEPARTMENT TO MOTIVATE CORPORATE TO SEND THE PARTS TO THE DEALER?

THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V635000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL).HOWEVER, THE PART NEEDED TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE.
