My town has no filters at all. Son needed some for his truck, and there are no fuel or oil filters to be had. Dealer, parts houses, zippo, nothing. Thankfully, I had a spare set from Geno's to give him. Just placed an order with Geno's to replace those, and backordered till February.

Let's go Brandon!!!!

I use Rotella T6 5W40 oil and it's tough to find plus the price has gone crazy! I get my filters from dieselfiltersonline.com and found their pricing to be very good. The problem with most all vendors though is the $$ shipping fees.

You might check semi truck repair places if your in a bind, mine had one of the fuel filters and the oil filter. Got lucky and dealer had 3 mopar fuel filters just come in so was able to get the fuel under the bed. Expect fleetgaurd from a semi shop vs mopar.
Fleet guard oil filter # LE16035
Fleet guard engine fuel # FS53000
 
try finding 10w30. I've stashed 6 gallons from amazon, good for the next 30k. it's crazy.

I ordered fuel filters from Geno's in November. I still dont have them.
 
Oil filters were back ordered with Chrysler Canada until recently. Was at the shop yesterday and noticed a couple of cases on the shelf. Rotella 15 40 is the recommended oil north of the border. I know we finally rec'd a skid of it as well.
 
I just ordered this off Amazon today, says it will be here tomorrow...guess we will see!

Does anyone know if fuel filters will be changes as part of the CP4 recall?
 
I've had my filters since this summer luckily but finding Rotella T6 has been near impossible. I always order the filters through Geno's when I do a service so they are on hand by the time the next service comes around, but usually wait to buy the oil.

I was lucky to find a 2.5 gal of Rotella T6 at a NAPA main warehouse deep back on a shelf after the guy at the counter had said they've been waiting on it for a couple months. Great, but I was half a gallon short. So I had to settle on a gallon jug of STP "diesel motor oil" but it matched the 5w-40 of the t6 I found. It'll have to do for this oil change.

Crazy hoops we have to jump through to keep our trucks on the road.
 
Just received a set of fuel filters from KLM today, couple bucks more than Geno’s not much more. I‘ve not been able to find Rotella anywhere…….was able to get Valvoline Premium Blue 10-30 at Napa monthly special for 14.99 a jug. First oil change I’ve done on this newish truck.
 
Local Walmart has MO-285 oil filters on the shelf stock.

I've always just kept a stock of oil & Fuel filters and oil on hand, usually enough for 2-3 changes. That said, I only do annual changes. Still have one more that's on the dealer.
 
The easy to order filter kits have been backordered but I recently got all the filters off Amazon. Combination of mopar and fleetguard.
