Reported at 21,000 miles, April 2020 CrashInjury

I was traveling and around 655 miles from home. My truck was idleing and started making a loud knocking noise. I turned it off and then it wouldn't start again. I called chrysler roadside assistance and had it towed to the nearest dealer, bluebonnet chrysler dodge and ram. After my vehicle sat there for 4 days, they finally looked at it and determined that my cp4 fuel injector pump had failed. It is all covered by warranty, but now I'm 655 miles from my truck with nothing to drive.
