Had a real bad week with a fleet of 2020 Freightliner Cascadias

Three trucks came in from the same company in Boise with the same DEF system fault code, P20EE. The first one took me a full day to trace back to a cracked injector line, but the other two had clogged dosing pumps. The shop owner said the company switched to a cheap off-brand DEF fluid six months ago. Has anyone else seen a rash of issues from a bad batch of fluid?

Cheap DEF will wreck those dosing pumps every time.

Actually, @jessicap82, I've had decent luck with the budget stuff in my old truck. The pump's been fine for years now. Maybe it's more about the specific brand than just the price.

Check if they're storing the fluid outside in the cold...
