Pump mounted driver has failed a number of times, causing very high fuel temperatures. I have replaced all other parts in fuel/electrical circuit, but have had to replace the pmd 3 times so far. When the pmd is new, everything works great, but that only lasts a few months at best.

I own a 1996 chevrolet c3500 p.u. Purchased new in feb, 1996. This truck came equipped with uniroyal laredo lt245/75r16e tires. They were replaced in may of 2004 after 51,000 trouble free miles. I purchased uniroyal laredo lt245/75r16e awt tires as a replacement. I suffered a tread separation on the right front on june 30, 2007. That tire only had 15,000 mile on it. I had a second tread separation on the left front tire on july 23, 2008 . This tire was 4 years old and had 19,000 miles on it. Always properly inflated and rotated every spring. This was the second failure out of a set of four purchased in 2004. The tires are going to kill someone. I noticed a recall for the next size smaller. Perhaps the recall didn't go far enough.
