I heard that all the ones that call ahead of time go to the back of the line and that the patient ones go to the front of the line.

Curious how often the Pump fails. Have brand new truck (2020) and am planning April long trip. Hoping to get this done before then. Little worried about travelling if this fails on the road pulling our 5th wheel

According to the NHTSA report, the current failure rate is around 4% (source). I personally wouldn't let it ruin your plans as while possible it's on the lower end of likelihood. Although it's 3x more likely that your pump will fail than you'll die from a confirmed covid case, and we shut the entire world down for that so I guess maybe you shouldn't drive the truck till they fix it.

Note: it's a joke, not a political statement lest the ban hammer overlords get a little too eager this morning.

I have a 2020 3500 HO and have driven to Missouri from southern Arizona pulling a 30-foot 7k boat, then again from AZ to Kansas and then again through Colorado a couple other times to Colorado with not one hick-up. you'll be fine.

 

[20Limited3500]

My 2020 Dually HO is at a little under 28K now. Hauling our camper and at times, my Jeep on a trailer behind it. Not one issue yet to date. Doesn't mean I don't have this in the back of my mind on trips and such. But you can't live in fear.

 

[72guy]

Ask yourself, do I feel lucky. Well, do ya

 

[SMK Shoe]

got just over 113,500 miles on a 2020 3500 dually. Been adding hotshot fuel additives since about 20K miles. No problems so far. But did get the notice that my truck is involved, so will wait and see. Won't stop driving it the way I do but I am a little cautious

That's a bunch of driving in 2 yrs. Guessing with the trailer in your sig, you haul things often.

 

[SMK Shoe]

really only a year. Started driving hotshot last January

I know nothing about hotshot driving. Is there good money to be made doing it?

But if it does happen, you will have a really bad day.

Is the y78 recall saying they have to replace fuel pump? Service manager said safety recall, software update and inspection.....not understanding?

The recall calls for replacement of the HP pump

 

[Mike_SE]

Hairy, might want to find another dealer. The inspection is to be sure there is no debris in the system to contaminate the new CP3.3.
As Brewbud said, It's to replace the CP4.

 

[Hairy]

Thank You all a repeat phone call to the dealer and talked to the recall manager, YES pump Will be replaced, first associate is new and misinformed.

 

[SMK Shoe]

Hot shot is like driving a semi truck, just using a dually pickup and gooseneck trailer and carrying loads up to about 15K. Last year was great for the money. This year has fallen badly and with the cost of diesel, just about not worth it. I am parking my truck. I just can't see putting the miles on it with sub 2$ a mile loads.

 

[exiledinaz]

Yep. I quit moving RV's locally. Can't make a buck at $4 a gallon.

 

[SMK Shoe]

I'm can't hardly find 4$ gallon. 4.45-4.69 in the north east. Even local mom and pop down in the Carolina's is high

 

[bigcitymike]

Anyone get their pump replaced yet? My experience with the local dealer is 50-50, and I don't want to be one of the first few that they've repaired under this recall.
