Consumer Description
NOTICED STRONG FUEL SMELL IN GARAGE AFTER A FILL UP. I AM A MECHANIC SO REMOVED REAR SEAT TO INSPECT FUEL PUMPS, FOUND THE PASSENGER SIDE FUEL PUMP LEAKING QUITE A BIT OF FUEL THROUGH THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR BECAUSE HOUSING WAS MELTING AROUND THE ELECTRICAL PINS ALLOWING FUEL TO POOL UP ON TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP. VERY DANGEROUS TO HAVE THESE FUEL FUMES TRAPPED IN THE GARAGE AROUND SO MANY THINGS THAT CAN SPARK. ALSO NOT SAFE AT ALL TO HAVE STANDING GASOLINE ON CONTACT POINTS OF THE FUEL PUMP ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR. VEHICLE NEEDS FUEL PUMP MODULE REPLACED. VERY HIGH RISK OF FIRE!! *TR
