  • 19,000 miles
2020 Ram 2500 diesel 1900 miles began to lose power while traveling 70mph on the expressway. I attempted to accelerate to no avail. I was traveling in the fast lane and caused serval vehicles to abruptly change lanes as to not make contact with the truck. I attempted to exit the road, changing multiply lanes, the vehicle continued to lose power becoming a hazard to moving traffic. I was able to maneuver the vehicle off the road. The truck was shaking and sputtering. I turned off the truck and attempted to restart. The truck would turn over but not start. A tow truck was dispatched to my location and the truck towed to local dealership. I was told the fuel pump CP4 had failed and metal shavings were in my fuel system.
