I am one of the “lucky” owners of a ‘19 or ‘20 Ram Cummins with the CP-4 pump. If you didn’t already know, these pumps are found in all 3 major brands of truck and across a few different models as well.
As far as I know, Ram was the only manufacturer to offer free replacement of all affected models.
Mine was done on Monday & Tuesday, absolutely free of charge. I have read the replacement cost per truck cost Stellantis about $8,000 per truck! Ram did the right thing for its’ customers.
Truck feels basically the same. Start times are just slightly longer than with the CP-4. Could be air working it’s way out. Interesting that the CP-4 actually developed higher rail/injector pressures than the CP-3.
Read about the whole thing here. Pretty interesting read. Looks like Ford & GM have yet to step up to the plate despite lawsuits.
