Consumer Description

MY 2002 DODGE RAM 2500 IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH ITS VP-44 ENGINE PUMP. IT GETS A "DEAD PEDAL" AND IN TRAFFIC IT SUDDENLY STOPS. THERE ISN'T ANYTHING YOU CAN DO BUT PULL OVER UNTIL IT COMES BACK ON. THIS ISN'T A GOOD THING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, ESPECIALLY ON A 4 LINE ROAD IN THE LEFT LANE. THIS ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH A SPEEDING SEMI (HE ALMOST REAR ENDED ME!). *TR
