There are 3 main attributes that can cause the fragile CP4 pump to fail:
1. Fuel Contamination (water, DEF, gasoline)
2. Air in the fuel line (typically happens after a filter change)
3. Manufacturing defects of the pump
The best implementation for a CP4 pump is to have really good fuel filtration for both particulates and water. A lift pump to ensure good priming of the pump after a filter change, but still requires correct filter installation and the proper priming process in which a lot of people don't follow.
On another note if anyone believes any auto manufacturer will cover a fuel system repair if there are any signs of rust, DEF and gasoline contamination are either pushing some false agenda or lives in some alternate universe. In addition there will be a time when your beloved warranty will expire and the issues I listed except for any manufacturing defects can still bite you and your wallet.
Customers of the new 2019 Ram/6.7 cummins... tighten your seatbelt because it's going to be a bumpy ride.

When I was looking to upgrade I researched the Ford 6.7L and quickly decided I wasn’t going to buy one and have to spend more of my hard earned money once again dealing with shortcomings such as the ridiculous CP4 pump. As much as I was a die hard Ford man I don’t regret my ultimate decision one bit! :B
Now that the ram/6.7 cummins has the "ridiculous CP4 pump" (your description) are you a die hard Ram man?

From what I have been told CUMMINS does not give FCA a warranty. I would have assumed the same with Navistar and Ford.
Was it the same lady that told you that cummins was going to supply engines with down stream egr?
