Default New Ram on the Block

Hello, I have a new 2011 Ram 1500 5.7 HEMI.
Love this truck like no other. Down at the dealership with a fried fuel pump. Less than 7800 miles. Very discouraging to say the least. Anyone else have issue with this problem on the 4th gen truck?
Still love it but missing it currently. Crew cab is awesome and would drive nothing less (except loaner quad).

Welcome to Dodge Forum

Things that are electrical sometimes dont always work properly. Just because it is new doesnt mean it will work.

Be careful and not let your gas get below a quarter tank as your gas actually cools your pump.
