Need some guidance!!!
« on: May 27, 2008 - 12:55:21 PM »
Hello All
I own a 2006 Ram 2500 Diesel...The power steering pump died on Monday.  The dealer has confimed that the pump is on national back order....could be a month or more.  What recourse do i have with Dodge...Any thoughts??

 :banghead:

Thanks
Russ

Umm, good luck with that!

have you tried any online part sources?  Maybe your local NAPA.  someone proabably makes a replacement part.
Unless it is a one year only part.
  Update:

NAPA Online has a remanufactured one...

They list 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007 lol Ask anyway, they may interchange or he may have one. Also, do plenty of Google searches, it will be available. Not all pumps on the shelf will be sold, some will just be out of stock. Good luck.
