I don't know about dodges, but take it back and install that $90 pump from rock auto. Tell the dealer to call you when the oem part comes in. Then just take it back and have the oem installed.
Thinking of buying a Dodge ? What if I were to tell you ......

I looked up the 2015 Dodge warranty on line because I'm bored and have a fresh beer in front of me.
I finally decided to actually look to see if the $200 battery I put in my son's 2015 Hyundai should have been covered under warranty last month. It was, dammit. Oh well. It would have been a PITA to wait till the service department opened on Monday and he's two hours away. Some problems are just easier to make go away by throwing a little money at them.
I’m no mechanic. I don’t know how to do this stuff for me it would be easier to just keep the loaner.
Well on the bright side you're keeping miles off the car. Considering you have a plan to trade it in that's not a terrible thing.
Still, 6 months is crazy.

I just waited over 3 months for a set of rocker arms from Ford, the same ones that were used in every GT500 and FGT ever made. I guess that sort of thing happens

Don't feel too bad, I've been in a Ford Focus for two months while my F-150 gets an engine replacement under warranty.
Ridiculouz.
I could kind of see that if they are specific to the 500 and GT which were limited production. The 6.4 is in a lot of different models though.
This is the sorta thing that makes me crazy, too ocd to leave my car with the dealer waiting months on parts. I haven't even bothered with the airbag recall. My buddy was without his mustang for two months waiting on parts to fix his MT82, that is crazy, could not imagine a 6 mos wait on water pump! Good luck Bruno!
Have some brockton peeps remove one on the lot. Done.
Yeah me either. I'd probably void the warranty somehow. At least you have a loaner. F it, it is what it is.
Thanks pal. I’m hoping it will be faster.
Btw I still haven’t done the airbag recall either.
On a side note I wanted to pay to have my car towed back to my garage until the part comes in then tow it back but the dealership said I’d have to return the loaner if they give me my car back. Why I have no idea.
Don't know where dodge is sourcing their water pumps from but I just got a recall in the mail for my 2016 ram three-quarter ton truck for water pump issues.
Strange.
Strange.
Hahahahahah. Of course it’s at Dodge 24.
I’d rather my peeps just get me a hellcat and they can keep my scat.
Very strang for sure. I’m pretty sure these water pumps are an ongoing issue for Challengers. I’m guessing they are Chinese parts.
Nearly every car made in the last few years has the airbag recall from Lambo to Fiat, we are talking 70+ million vehicles and most will never be fixed.
@BrunotheBoxer
It's a sign to go Hellcat. If not sure, then it's a sign to test the rock climbing ability of that Ram, lol. Had a 13' (I think) Ram when my Powerstroke was getting injectors. Wasn't exactly impressed with that thing. Hopefully new are built better.

I’m afraid this same thing might happen to a hellcat to tell you the truth. Maybe there are other parts on backorder. I want to see how this plays out before I give Dodge more money.
The ram is alright but I wouldn’t buy a truck except for a raptor.
I'll call them tomorrow. All the brands have this issue but the longest backorders from my experience are usually FCA parts. I'll be able to get the exact numbers though as far as how many are waiting for the part and the estimated time.
