Stretch of 218 from Charles City to I-35 ... worst Black Ice i 've ever seen or driven on ..
☠.. Online courses now available for Pot Stirring
Worst black ice I’ve driven on was I-69 S between Fort Wayne and Indy 2 yrs ago. Came to a stop with big truck behind me and when suddenly a gust of wind blew the back end of trailer sideways. Once we got moving we could only idle down the road at about 5 mph. Just down right nasty.

I am sure glad it's 70 in Indy now. The wind just blows the van off the highway, but no ice.
️"Amazing Grace, half-decent rates..."
Last time they did it was 6 yrs ago. I think it cost me $250 last time.
They do that? I bought my E-track from them, but didn't know they installed anything. Although, I"m probably too cheap to pay for that service
Well that's not too bad. Was that just installation, or everything?
Make them pay for fuel pump and labor, until they find what's wrong with it, they are liable for any mishaps.
75% it was something else. 25% - they forget to reset the codes on the computer. One way or another, they are milking you.

The repair is being covered under warranty, so what’s their incentive to milk me?

In my experience "bad gas, let's change the fuel pump" ... is often code for .. "We don't know what the heck is going on, let's take a stab at it ..."
Hope it works out for ya ...
Under warranty it's "follow the exact OEM troubleshooting steps and document each step" or the dealership doesn't get paid for the work.
Wonder how that works if they install a part that doesn't solve the problem does Dodge warrant dept still pay the dealer or does the dealer have to put back the old part and eat the labor??

If the dealer followed the exact Dodge troubleshooting chart...Dodge pays for it all, new parts stay in vehicle. As far as their concerned, if the pump failed the troubleshooting steps..it's bad... whether it fixes the overall problem or not.

Not many fail under warranty. That's why I said that. Glad they are paying for it all. Bad, 'cause it takes your time from driving. Hope they fix it soon for good, so you can hit the road again.
