Description of the problem	After driving the truck to a dentist appointment, the truck would not start and there was fuel spraying out of the engine compartment when turning the engine over. A few days earlier, i had commented about the diesel engine having a "hiccup". After having the vehicle towed to a dealership, the service manager said "i bet i know what it is without even looking". As it turns out, he was absolutely correct. The #4 cylinder fuel injector line was ruptured and spaying fuel everywhere. He indicated that the '06 was vulnerable to breaking that particular injector line due to vibrations. I looked tb's up on the internet and there were none. However, i found numerous consumer complaints about the same line failure for '05 and '06 models. This condition is totally unacceptable. If the failure occurs while on the road and the engine shuts down, there could be serious risks to everyone on the road as these rigs are made to pull trailers and other heavy equipment. In addition, numerous of the complaints cited engine compartment fires. If this situation doesn't warrant an nhtsa investigation and subsequent recall, i don't know what it would take.
