Call me furous!! Due to a manufacturing error this small fuel system hose cost me over $2000.00 which is not covered in any warrenty plan. I purchases the plaitinum extended warrenty for $2200.00 to avoid such cost and this part is not covered! This part had to be installed incorrectly at the plant; it is not accessable without taking apart the wheel well around /under the gas tank. This hose was faced downward which allowed water to enter the fuel system. After sever weather condition (Rain and snow) driving to work one night the damage was done. The entire fuel system needs to be replaced and flushed out. I’m currently waiting to find out if any damage was done to the fuel enjectors which will cost me even more money.
The symtoms were periodic bucking... If your truck bucks - Check this hose before the weather destroys your entire fuel system!!!
