how can debris in the fuel cause it to run rich ? if anythign the debris in diesel is possible and can happen but in a low mileage vehicle the fuel filter would have been clogged first . they need to show you that debris got passed the filter and even then it would cause a lean condition since the debris would inhibit flow not increase it.

We took some fuel had it tested and came back good!
Called the dealer back to let them know the results and that if the truck is not fixed under warranty they will receive a notice in the mail from an attorney and get on the local news Shame on You section.
They are trying now to get warrantee to fix it.
