Driving the truck down the interstate and was getting off on an exit ramp and the engine died out. Took vehicle to the dealer and was told that the fuel injection pump had broken.

problem #2

Ram 2500 4WD Diesel

  • miles
Since the 1st pump failed I have seriously diminished power and mileage. After Chrysler got involved...they kept throwing parts at it but handed me a lot of stories. Would not send to cummins. Cummins agreed to diagnose the problem after several months of run around with Chrysler. Still not resolved.
