Should start a pool on how much activity there is going to be in the next few months.
I hope Ford, GMC and VW / Audi have a metric ton of spare parts in the pipeline this year for the failures to come.
Kitted, boxed and shrink wrapped, ready to ship, complete with fuel testing kits included to verify all that "contaminated" fuel they keep claiming about killing their pumps. What is ironic is no one with older VW TDI's based on previous technology rotary pumps are having failures from this same "contaminated" fuel that everyone is getting. go figure? You'd think Bosch Service Centers all over the USA would be rebuilding totalled out old pumps from all this bad fuel. But they aren't! No complaints about it showing up on TDI Club... I wonder why? ;-)
My strategy is to run Power Service white Bottle every fill up to keep my fuel from ever getting water build up from high humidity and condensation in the tank, and to keep my tank as close to full at all times, at least above 1/2 tanks during high humidity periods, keeping moist air out of the tanks.
I notice you don't mention Ram's CTD in your list. I'm guessing their HPFP is different from the other 3 brands (Ford, GMC and VW).
I've no idea who's fuel system /brand they use. If it's a Bosch CP 4.1 or 4.2 series HPFP on an inline 6 cylinder motor, let us know, and you can include it in the list, if failures start showing up.
