NHTSA Complaint #11386063 — 2019 RAM 3500

MY TRUCK IS EQUIPPED WITH A DEFECTIVE CP4 INJECTION PUMP. IT'S BEEN CHANGED TWICE SINCE MY TRUCK WAS BUILT, ONCE IN 2020 AND AGAIN IN 2021 TO A DIFFERENT MODEL. RAM HAS HAD MANY COSTLY AND DANGEROUS FAILURES WITH THESE PUMPS. I HAVE NOT YET HAD A FAILURE. HOWEVER IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME. WHEN A PUMP FAILS IT HAPPENS SUDDENLY AND NOT ONLY DOES IT WIPE OUT THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM AND SOMETIMES THE ENGINE, IT CAUSES YOUR ENGINE TO STALL. THIS CAUSES LACK OF POWER STEERING AND NO BRAKES. MY 3500 IS BUILT TO TOW HEAVY TRAILERS AND IN A SITUATION WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC OF A STEEP GRADE SUDDEN LOSE OF BRAKES COULD BE DISASTROUS, ESPECIALLY TOWING A CAMPER WITH MY FAMILY ABOARD. RAM KNOWS OF THIS PROBLEM AND MADE A QUICK REVISION OF THE PUMP IN 2020 AND DITCHED IT ALTOGETHER IN 2021 FOR A DIFFERENT PUMP. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THESE 2019 FIRST MODEL TRUCKS WITH THE KNOWN DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS CP4 INJECTION PUMP.
