FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
This complaint is regarding NHTSA Recall #21V-880, or Manufacturers recall # Y78 safety recall regarding main fuel pump replacement on my 2020 Dodge Ram truck with a Cummins diesel engine. I brought this recall to the attention of my servicing dealer in Feb of 2022. They advised due to Covid manufacturing delays, it would be a long time before my truck would be repaired. I spoke with them yesterday, Nov 7-22, they advised I am still number 40 on the list and that they are only allowed to order one pump per week. This process is unacceptable. I have not been driving the truck due to the potential safety concern of a failed pump causing loss of power and potential accident in traffic. I have found out thru dealer sources that there are 371 of these pumps in parts depot in Portland Oregon, 2 hrs from my house. So it doesn't seem there is a shortage of these parts, as there are several parts depots across the nation with these stocked. This is a consumer safety issue that should be addressed in a timely manner. It seems that it is being treated as a convenience issue. Please advise, thank you.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
recall: Y78NHTSA 21V-880 - Dealer Larry H Miller Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram unable to perform work in a timely manner- stated that they are able to order only one (1) HPFP every 7 days and the wait tome is over 10 months! I believe the failure of this pump creates a likely situation of causing death and/or injury that would make this more critical than a 10 month wait. Is there any legal remedies to get FCA and Cummins to perform their repairs timely? I made an appointment and gave the recall # and made arrangements for transportation as repair will take more than one day. At no time was I informed of the backlog. This should have been communicated by NHTSA, FCA, and LH Miller. When I called FCA hotline 800-853-1403 and spoke to Loretta the response was anything but helpful -more the attitude of we don;t care and it will be fixed when it will be fixed

Defect Description:
VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
I am concerned that recall 21V-880 was issued Nov. 12 2021 and there is still no fix available. I just got home from my local dealer. My intention was to get an appointment to take care of all three of the open recalls on my vehicle on one service visit. They say they can do two of them but not 21V-880. How long is an adequate wait time for a solution ?
