Consumer Description

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START, TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE, AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP. 2 HOURS LATER, GOT A CALL THAT THE MODULE HARNESS HAD TO BE REPLACED ALSO BECAUSE THE CONNECTION IT MADE TO THE FUEL PUMP HAD BURNED OUT AND FUSED ITSELF TO THE FUEL PUMP. THE SERVICE TECH STATED THIS WAS A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION, DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE EXPOSED ELECTRICAL CONNECTION INSIDE THE FUEL TANK HAD MELTED, AND IF WE HAD BEEN LOW ON FUEL, THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A FIRE. *TR
