2010 Dodge RAM 3500 Fuel system Problems

“2 months after the factory warranty expired, the diesel fuel pump started to leak diesel all over the ground. I noticed the leak on the road or the driveway, where I parked the truck. After about a week I took it to a garage. The truck was still able to be driven because it had not completely blown the seal yet. However, fuel was leaking out of it causing a serious environmental and fire hazard. This is happening so frequently in these trucks that the part, that cost $5800.00, is on serious back order with Dodge. …”

I was towing my camper (8000lbs) and the engine started knocking - I was told by the dealership that I purchased bad diesel fuel (kerosene in fuel) and it caused the injector to hydro-lock and flood a cylinder and this is not covered under warranty, and it will cost me ($1000+) to fix this vehicle.
