I own a 95 Cadillac that had less than 3000 miles on it when I got it in 95. In 2000 the fuel pump shorted out in the fuel tank burning up the fuel pump and the wiring harness going to it. I had the car repaired at stutzman Cadillac in winchester va. In November 2005 the same thing happened again. I called Cadillac main office and talked to told them about what had happened. The only reply I got from them was they were sorry that I was having problems with the car. The first time this happened the car had 43000 miles on it. It now has 81000. It seems to me that there ought to be a fuse or something to keep this from happening.

Original fuel pump was replaced 09/99 at approximately 37,000 miles. Second fuel pump replaced 11/01 at 48,343 miles. Both failures occurred after the hot wire inside the tank and attached to the fuel pump motor over heated, melted the wiring insulation and scorched the assembly housing and connectors. On the first failure the wire burned completely in to and the pump stopped suddenly. The present failure began intermittently and then failed permanently. It initially failed in heavy traffic on the freeway.
