Typical fuel system symptoms owners report

Owners report the DEF (diesel exhaust fluid) system triggering repeated speed reductions, with dashboard warnings counting down miles until the truck is capped at a low top speed.
Some describe the fuel pump failing outright, causing sudden loss of power at highway speed and, in some cases, the vehicle failing to restart afterward.
Others report the high-pressure mechanical fuel pump failing during high-speed driving, producing an immediate loss of power and throttle response.
Several owners point to a fuel pump control module failure that caused the truck to stall in the middle of the road.
A few complaints mention DEF sensor or module problems that falsely show the tank as empty and trigger a reduced-power countdown even when DEF was recently filled.
