Hi all. Recently purchased used 2018 Dodge 1500 eco diesel Big Horn. Then find out there’s a Z46 recall. months to get same part. Drive or not drive. That is the question.

I just got an appointment for my 2015. Waited 2 years. I called the corporation. They said to keep driving it and if it fails they'll cover the cleaning of the fuel system and any residual damage.

Drive it without any worry.
The Ecodeisel CP4 pump recall results from the pump being a problem on the Cummins engines. NHTSA caused that safety recall. Then, because the Ecodiesel was using the same pump, even though its failure rate was less than 1%, the Z46 recall was issued.

thanks John. I love the truck so far. Previous had three new Longhorns. Still got my last one 2016. But have to say gas mileage wasn’t great. Loving the diesel for that. Drive it I will.

Thanks ..how long did you have to wait for the recall? They are telling me 3 to 4 months

I'm at about 172k on my 2016, no problems since I've owned it, went in yesterday for a today appointment to get the recall done.
After I got the letter from Ram, I called my local-est dealer (same one I use for oil changes, etc.) and got on the waiting list. I think I waited maybe 2-3 months after.

Thanks

GOOD NEWS FOR EVERYONE WAITING FOR A NEW HPFP. I called my dealer in Carlsbad Ca on Monday to check on the status of the replacement pump and the replay was WHEN CAN YOU BRING IT IN. So yesterday I was able to get my pump replaced. I was told the new pumps are now available

 

[MoparLarryAK]

That’s great. I also got in past Thursday when I called Wednesday to see where I was on wait list. Relieved it’s finally completed
