2021 Ram 3500 Fuel system Problems

“My brand new 2021 Ram 3500 limited longhorn, suddenly stopped running at around 70 miles. This happened on I-84 between caldwell, id and baker city, or on 19 jan 2021 around 9:00pm. Roadside failed twice at getting us towed to safety. The 1st towing company called to say he declined the service and was surprised that they booked him anyway. The 2nd one informed us they had to decline the service because roadside assistance would not pay a fair price. By then we, the truck, and our trailer waited on the interstate for 4 hours in pitch dark and very cold weather. …”

“I took the vehicle to the dealer for recall Manufacturer Recall Number13A NHTSA Recall Number23V-060 The dealer told me that they can only order one per week. I will have to wait over a year for the part to come in. This is a fire hazard and I have been advised to not park the vehicle in the garage or near other vehicles. Waiting over a year for a fire hazard repair is not acceptable.”

“I’ve replaced turbo twice, computer once, now I’ve been told by multiple dealerships that I need to replace the def system and or fuel pump I hadn’t even got a 100k on the truck yet.

The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 77,000.”

“Brand new truck (226 miles) STOPPED RUNNING on Interstate 90 in Montana. Very dangerous situation, although was able to pull to side of interstate and was able to tow truck to Butte Montana and no one was injured. Nonetheless, had this occurred in rural area, snowy mountain passes, pulling livestock trailer etc (purpose for which truck is intended), could have easily been life threatening. Understand this may be the same fuel pump issue affecting many others. Should be recalled immediately. No warning, truck just went from 75 mph to zero in very rapid fashion. …”
