The truck proceeded to completely shut off while driving, rendering me unable to control the vehicle as all systems shut down.   There were no warning lights present or any other warning signs.  It coasted to a stop on the side of the road.  The safety of myself and anyone around me was at high risk as I had no ability to control the vehicle.  The vehicle only has 12,000 miles on it so I had it towed to the closest dealership, Autostar of Hendersonville NC.  It took a week to get a diagnosis because their solitary diesel tech was on vacation.  They offered my no loaner vehicle and FCA has not made an adequate offer to cover the full cost of a loaner vehicle.  The diagnosis on the vehicle was a high pressure fuel pump failure.  I currently have not ETA on parts and no vehicle to drive.  It is my understanding that NHTSA is already investigating this issue.  Multiple attempts made to get help with a loaner vehicle, an ETA on parts/install have all been met with deflection from dealership and FCA customer care representatives.  Any attempt made to inquire if the new fuel pump/system has been adequately updated to ensure this wont happen again has not been answered.  Any attempt made to inquire if this issue has cause long lasting damage to the engine has not been answered.  This is a serious problem and needs to be remedied.  FCA needs to step up and take care of its customers.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2020","productMake":"RAM","productModel":"2500","manufacturer":"Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)"}]}]}
