Fuel Pump Problems of Land Rover Range Rover

I purchased my Range Rover 2005 hse (used) from land lover of parsippany paul miller on 2-26-2011 with 61981 miles on the odometer. Out of the last 30 days the car has been dysfunctional at the dealer for 15 days primarily with electric box fan noise, dead battery, faulty alternator and dead fuel pump with under 900 miles driven (majority of which back and forth to the dealer). Detailed sequence of events is listed in the appendix. . Read more...

The contact owns a 1999 Land Rover Range Rover. The contact heard a rattling sound and noticed that the heat shield surrounding the muffler was compromised. He took the vehicle to several dealers, but they could not locate any failure. The contact stated that the heat from the exhaust melted the plastic gas tank and surrounding wires. The exhaust is located next to the gas tank, unlike most vehicles. The design has fused the fuel pump to the gas tank. A mechanic inspected the vehicle and stated that the heat from the exhaust has caused a dangerous fuel leak. The exhaust system was repaired for $2,000 by a local mechanic. The mechanic stated that the fuel design was a safety hazard and caused the damage. Land rover refused to repair the vehicle for free. The failure mileage was 90,000 and current mileage was 110,000.
