2017 Ram Rebel with 13,450miles same fuel sending unit fail works at full tank for around 40 miles then goes to empty was wondering if anyone found a better unit to install to replace the oem as it seems to be an issue
$70 assembly from Amazon with a more robust (ethanol kills the OEM) sender and increased GPM fuel pump.
~2 hours to drop the tank

Had same issue on my 2015. Fuel additives did nothing for me unfortunately. Wouldn't replace with OEM, they haven't fixed the issue and I didn't feel like replacing it again but that's my opinion. Ordered a Delphia from Rock Auto for $200. It showed up yday, I dropped the tank today and replaced the pump. Took me a total of 3 hours in the driveway while taking my time so I didn't break anything, would've went faster with help.
.......suddenly claimed they'd had a cash deposit put on it,the day the trade was supposed to occur (turned out it was a BS story,as a month later they still had it sitting in the showroom),that put my dealer in a real bind......they offered her a fully loaded wide body ScatPack Challenger instead,when i said "no" if they couldn't find us another 1320,i'd just stop payment on the check and we'd come pick her old car up.That's when the story got real funny,as it turned out they'd already sold her old car,so they were in a real bind. Took them a few hours,but they finally found her another 1320,in another small town 3 hours away,but they did alot of whining as the car they found,had $3,000 in more options,so in the end she ended up with a fully loaded 1320 Challenger for the price we'd paid for a stripper model 1320,lol
Mine went in my 2015 under warranty. Easy fix thoWell I finally threw a code for fuel sensor failure. My fuel gauge would intermittently drop to E once I hit 1/2 tank. Never threw a code until this week. Took it into the dealership only to have them take over 24 hrs to diagnose even with a code... $550 + tax, parts and labor included (same ****** OEM fuel sending unit). After looking around online, seems many vehicles get this error and Sea Foam or Techron (black bottle) seems to clear it up in some cases due to sulfur build up from ****** gasoline.
Anyone else have luck with this DIY method? My truck is just over 3 yrs old with 44k miles... kick in teeth to have this component fail so soon.
