FASS II void 100,000 mile warr?

ok i took the truck in to a local dodge dealer in austin, they look at it and told me that i have voided my 5 year 100,000 because of the fuel pump i am using....then they charge me 90 bucks for that. IT HAS A INJECTOR PUMP TIMING FAILURE and this is not covered since i am not using one of there great transfer pumps. I am hot, then to top it off i leave after closing time and the hood is not all the way shut and the **** intercooler boot blows off. so i get to put it back on in the Taco Cabana parking lot. I dont know what i am going to do. pump is more than i want to pay for me to put it on, then do i really want to buy another dodge, for always fixed my problems without looking for loops to get out of fixing it.

take it to another dealer... I had one tell me that my "fuel pump" voided the warranty... the other one couldn't care less about it.

Most of what a dealer does never gets past their local system. Tsb on the hitch and one reflash was all that ever showed on mine.

slim,

Don't get mad, get smart. Put the stock pump back on and take it to a different dealer, and make them pay for a new in the tank LP & IP.

there is supposed to be a "black list" but I took my truck to a local dealer and they said they couldn't do anything because of my aftermarktet fuel pump... 9 months later I took it to another local dealer and they didn't have a problem with anything on my truck.

Maybe some local members will chime in with some favorable dealers... a FASSII shouldn't void your warranty. Dodge should pay you money for bypassing the stock lift pump.

I wouldn't have thought twice about installing your VP. We stock four of them and it would have been back in your hands by now.

That is a bunch a bull. I bought my FASS from the dealer. I would go to a different dealer or go to a cummins dealer instead.

well went to another dealer and worked out a deal on an 06 qc 6 speed 4x4 it is still silver. the dealer looked at the truck and said they would give me 20k for it, so i took my subs, amp and toolbox and drove off in the new one. Funny thing is my roomate got an 06 6.0 f350 4x4 with the chrome kit....a bunch of little chrome extras the 20 inch ford rims look nice. The first thing it did was leave a oil spot on the driveway, looks like from the turbo, so it is back at the ford house for the 6.0.
