HI HAVE A 2016 RAM 1500 5.7L HEMI (BIG HORN QUAD CAB). CHECK ENGINE AND FUEL LIGHT CAME ON AND READ," FUEL LEVEL SENSOR FAIL" BUT MY GAS TANK IS FULL AND STILL READS EMPTY. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS IS A BIG ISSUE PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING AND COMPLAINING ABOUT AND SHOULD BE A RECALL..DODGE IS DOING NOTHING TO REMEDY THIS FAULTY PART AND STILL CHARGING PEOPLE TO FIX A DODGE PROBLEM.. I WONT EVER BUY A DODGE AGAIN AT THIS RATE.. VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT DODGE IS NOT FIXING THIS KNOWN ISSUE...QUOTED ME OVER 600$ FOR THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY (PART ONLY) THAT I FOUND FOR UNDER 300$ FROM SEVERAL OTHER VENDORS.. JUST NOT FAIR AS A CONSUMER, I EXPECTED BETTER FROM DODGE. I'LL BE LOOKING TO TRADE THIS RAM IN AND WONT PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE FROM DODGE UNLESS THEY RECTIFY, ACKNOWLEDGE AND FIX IT ASAP!!!!!!
