Other Fuel System Pump Problems of Ford Explorer Sport Trac

Complete failure of the fuel pump control module (driver) due to exensive corrosion that breached the component housing, leading to electrical shorting that melted the electrical connection terminal. This is clearly an engineering / assembly flaw because corrosion should be anticipated when bolting zinc parts to steel frame members (without a di-electric barrier) installed in an area, subject to direct contact with water & road salt, when being sold in north american climates.

Traveling on the nys thruway passing a car at approximately 75mph and my engine goes dead. No power or gas no power steering nothing. I manage to get to the shoulder of the road and I can smell something burning. I was towed to the nearest Ford dealership to find that my fuel pump control module and wiring harness are melted together. Scariest thing that ever happened to me.

I started smelling gas about a year ago, but thought it was a gas can I was hauling around. Well one day I pulled my car into the driveway , and noticed a small puddle under my car. I got down too see what it was. I smelled it and it was gas. I then dropped the gas tank and seen it was leaking at the connection between the fuel pump and the fuel line. I then bought the fuel line thinking this would fix the problem. Too make along story short it didn't. It was a real easy to replace the line. But now I have too replace the top of tank too. My point is this part should be recalled. There should never be a part that should leak gas especially where it makes a puddle right under the gas tank. Imagine if someone threw a cigarette under my car, boom. People shouldn't have to die for this to be recalled. I'm not going to fix this, Ford should. Bad application. If anything happens I planning on taking Ford to court.
