I have a 1998 Ford Windstar, and its fuel tank was leaking into the passenger compartment. When brought to the dealer it was said that the fuel tank collapsed at the fuel pump, which caused the leaking.

While driving at various speeds and without warning consumer smelled gas fumes inside the vehicle. Cause has yet to be determined. The seal between the gas tank and the fuel pump failed because the gas tank collapsed. The gas tank was replaced at the dealer. The fuel gauge accuracy problem that was corrected when the new gas tank was installed.

The fuel pump went out on my van. Luckily I was at home in my driveway. Called Ford and they said that there have been no complaints and they would not cover it. So I am having to have it fixed my self. The vehicle is 4 years old, I personally do not believe that the pump should be bad.

Fuel pump has stopped working due to insulation on wires wore off, which in some cases could result in a fire. Contacted dealer.

There are wires going through fuel tank that have no cover, and it could cause a fire. Dealer notified. The vehicle had stalled several times due to wires shorting out in the fuel pump. The fuel pump was replaced. Yh.

I had a fuse blow on my fuel pump. This pump is in the tank and the tank was full. When the mechanic removed the tank he found two wires with thethe coatings burnt off. A pieceof one wire was welded to one of the tubes. This could have caused a fire or if the tank wasnot full more likely an explosion. It is fused with 25amp. I believe this to be avery dangerous condition . Ihave the pump also pictures of same. Please keep me advised of your findings. If you need more info just call or e-mail.

Although fused the pump still caught fire. Parts have been saved.
