Electronic Stability Control problem

Abs recall 05068, clean & inspect wheel sensors, 18 Nov 2005. Abs & traction control warning lights on,16 Jun 2006 (55977 miles). Dealer diagnostic code c0265, ecbm ($925. 59 part) and also bpmv ($761. 14 part) plus approx 2hrs labor. I asked if it would be safe to disconnect the pump from the abs system until I could see if the recall would cover this cost, it hasn't happened as of this date. The vehicle has been in operation since this system failure. I now have learned that the relay on the ebcm that controls the power has contacts that weld closed which causes the pump to run continuously. I asked if I could have the old part when I get it fixed and was told no because it must be returned. I also feel that when I was told it may also need the bpmv that the check valve holding the pump pressure could be the true cause of system failure. I feel that people that buy this safety feature should have it work for the life of the vehicle. I also know that the repair costs have since gone up.
