I purchased my 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 truck around May 2022 at a used car lot. It had low mileage so I thought I did great. Immediately after I brought it home, it began to die. I figured it had a really old battery so I purchased a new one. This one would last around 3 days instead of the one day before dying. I would drive it and jump it over and over. I tried to contact the dealer over and over but they would not respond to my calls. I wrote a terrible review about them in Yelp and they contacted me immediately, but when I attempted to schedule a time to drop the truck back off, they stopped responding again. About 9 months later the truck stopped turning over all together. We found that the fuel pump was the issue. It sat for a year until I had it towed to the mechanic, who fixed the fuel pump, but found that the car would only run for a few seconds. He continued to diagnose it, and after weeks, he tells me that there is something terribly faulty with the electrical system, but he is stumped as to what it is. He says he does not see where anyone has tampered with the system at all, but there is something mysterious about the electrical component. I have put so much money into this truck including having to pay insurance and a high monthly payment for a dead truck. Please help me. I can provide documents after I meet with mechanic who still has truck.

My fuel pump quit while using my truck! Traced it back to the fuse box. Integrated fuse is to blame. I can not fix this due to availability of the part. And price! Normally you have a relay to change! But no! Ideas???

Sometimes when you stop at a red light or stop sign and then try to go the truck dies especially after getting gas and sometimes happens when turning to the right. We have taken it to the dodge dealership several times for this problem but they haven't fixed it. We have a lifetime warranty but they haven't fixed it. The date at the bottom is the last time it happened but it has been happening for a few years and the dealership in tyler, texas has not fixed it.

I own a 2007 ram 1500 that spits fuel back out and is not safe to the person filling it. It also creates a hazard with fuel on the ground. Dodge claims it was resolved in 2016 when I first had the problem. They are now unwilling to resolve their own repair for the same problem. Fuel 'spit-back' through the filler neck has been a longstanding problem in several chrysler, dodge and jeep models, caused by the inlet check valve (icv) mounted in the fuel tank. Despite some limited recalls and at least one extended lifetime warranty, this defect, which first surfaced in 2001, continues to plague a number of models. Tens of thousands of vehicles are outside of any campaign, forcing owners to pay for a repair that requires replacement of the entire tank assembly. The federal safety agency id: 10056513 tsb id: wb-d-14-23 mopar: on some pick up trucks, an extended warranty has been issued on fuel tank inlet check valve. Model 2007-2008 ram 1500. Issued on 9/9/2014 I also located information on an x49 recall for other vehicles.
