p018b code showing up again.

[pdumbleton]

I have around 5K on my 2020 Gladiator Rubicon, and this is now the second time this ODBII Code has shown up. All I can find and the dealer has told me is it is a fuel pressure sensor issue.

The dealership replaced the parts and I got it back on Thursday. Then after filling up the tank on Friday the check engine light came back on with the same code. Yes, I tightened the fuel cap properly.

As with the first time the truck will not accelerate smoothly, it doesn't shift above 6th gear and stutters starting from a stop sign. I disabled the auto-shutoff via the dash button, but doesn't appear to make a difference.

I'm taking it back to the dealer on Tuesday, but my weekend plans are shot. Anyone else have this experience or have any suggestions?

So I need a new fuel pump. Waiting on FCA to ship the part to the dealer. Currently no delivery date, part is back ordered.

Dealership offered a loaner, but they don't have anything with a tow package so that doesn't help me at all, so stuck without my Truck until the part comes in. Wife is not happy about the situation.

Thanks Alex, I have an open case with US Customer Care, and I think a solution has been found related to the loaner.

Hmm - having similar issues. The check engine lite came on, read as fuel vapor error. Cap was on tight, had gone through half a tank before the light came on. And was a bit less smooth on accelleration. After another fill, it finally turned off a couple days later. A couple weeks later I actually got the 'check fuel cap' message - it was on tight. But took it off and put it back on - message stopped. Last night no check engine light. This afternoon the light was back. Have not had it read yet but suspect it is the vapor sensor again. I have less than 3000 miles on my Gladiator, just got it Labor Day weekend.
