Recall: 3.0L EcoDiesel engine high pressure fuel pump (HPFP) failure (2021-2023 Gladiator)

[biodiesel]

I think the rumors are correct about it being the same pump s the schematics look the same. What is included in the pump kit? There’s no details on what’s included.

I'm a little confused as well. Here's the picture he sent of the pump, which has the CSSMZ461AA part number.

I heard it is not pinned. Not verified, but that's what I heard.

You know, I was always taught not to ask questions I don't want the answers to. This was one of them.

That was made in March? That can't be the right part.

Interesting that this was the date in 2021 that I purchased my JTRD. Unfortunately, it sits in the parking lot most of the time not being used.

Hell I was just in the Czech Republic. I should have bought one. ?

Ok dumb question. Anyone know what fuel pump is in the Dodge/Mercedes sprinter vans? Dodge carcass but Mercedes engine soooo? My buddy has a 2008 Dodge with a Mercedes diesel.

The Mercedes-Benz OM642 is a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 diesel engine that became available in 2005. The OM642 V6 CDI/BlueTEC engine replaced the previous five- and six-cylinder OM647 and OM648 inline engines.

I don’t think this is the “new design”

 

[Vtur]

They are saying this is the new pump.
CSSMZ461AA is the recall pump kit
68631088AA is the warranty replacement pump.

The rumor is that it's the same pump internally but built with hardened parts. I know a dealer tech that has installed two pumps already.

Probably with hardened pistons and rollers so it won't explode into pieces but instead just kill the engine. I'm predicting some lawsuit near future if this is the case.

I’m surprised there isn’t one already.

Isn't there one for the Ford's?

Thank you for the date. Is it a replacement cp4 or a retrofit cp3 like the Cummins?

From our understanding it is CP4. More information will be provided closer to the release date for everyone. We appreciate your patience and cooperation.

You believe a CP4 (not 4.2) is being retrofitted onto the EcoDiesel? That would make sense if there is an additional kit required but it now begs the questions what the plumbing will look like and what warranty / extended warranty will be offered for this new design.

My 2021 eco diesel gladiator had 58,000 miles on it with a minor problems. Under warranty the resale cans seal were replaced and the oil pan gasket were replaced . I tow a small 17’ travel trailer. I’ve driven to Alaska. I live in Florida and I’m planing a drive up the PCH in October, and on the return I will visit the Sequoia's.
I don’t want to risk having a catastrophic failure while I’m on such a journey. I have really enjoyed the gladiator but I traded it in for a half ton pick up to make the trip.
I didn’t get as much for a trade in as I desired.
The dealer is sending it to an action.
By law, a sticker was placed on it that said federal law prohibits the sale of the vehicle.
I removed the ARE cap, the fire extinguisher, the GPS, all my radios and antennas I had installed, I left the stop:start eliminator, the Firestone air shocks, the cable for the trailer brakes, and I left the “FJB edition” markers.
I’ll miss the 28 mpg.
It was not a happy day.
