My 2004 Dodge 1500 ram truck has a defective valve on the fuel tank . Dodge told me the entire fuel tank needs to be changed to the tune of about $900! however, Dodge does not have any fuel tanks & I'd be # 83 on a wait list!!! in the meantime, I cannot fill my tank with gas !!! I called Dodge 800 # three weeks ago, but have still not heard back. Local dealers are not helpful either.
