| ELECTRICAL SYSTEM - IGNITION | |||
| Consumer was driving down the highway and the truck cut off . tt | |||
| FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | |||
| 03/30/2012 | 237000 | ||
| As i was driving down the highway, my vehicle suddenly took off full throttle causing a loss of control. luckily i was able to shut the vehicle down before any damage could be done to my engine or other vehicles, and i had the vehicle towed home. dodge has a recall (#605), for the exact symptoms i was experiencing, though my injection pump does not fall under the date code. i took my injection pump into the dealership and they said they could not do anything about it. i then took apart the injection pump and found that the fulcrum lever, the same piece that caused the recall for recall #605, had indeed broken sending tiny bits of metal throughout my injection pump causing the runaway. i feel that dodge is responsible to compensate me for the parts that were broken, and should also extend the recall to all cummins diesel engines equipped with the ve pump. | |||
