Fuel pump failed with only 65,000 miles on the car.

Fuel pump was replaced last year to correct the problem of vehicle starting hard. Vehicle is now acting up again and we are having a hard time starting it. Also, the vehicle is still making a loud clunking noise from the rear of the vehicle. We were told it was the shocks last year and had them replaced. Obviously this was not the correct answer!!! Brakes were also replaced when vehicle was purchased. Brakes still feel soft and are making a grinding/squealing noise.

Had to have the engine rebuilt, new fuel pump, front/rear shocks & struts,intermediate steering shaft assembly, brakes. I think there is something extremely wrong with this vehicle and it should be investigated.

Car shut down on two separate occassions. Inspection after second failure at auto shop indicated fuel pump wiring harness connector under left middle passenger seat was filled with water and severely corroded, causing electrical short. Similar connector for ABS brakes also shows similar problem, but has not yet failed. Mechanic asked for replacement pigtail. Gm told them only entire harness was available (engine harness etc). Shop cut connector off and spliced wires with solder.
