2006 Toyota COROLLA Fuel System, Gasoline Problems, Complaints and Defects

 Issue ID898964
 Internal NHTSA #10441494
 ManufacurerTOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION
 BrandTOYOTA
 ModelCOROLLA
 Model Year2006
 File date23/11/09
 ComponentFUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
Product type codeVEHICLE
 Description of the problemThe fuel pump assembly is mounted in the top of the fuel tank , hanging down submerged in the gas. One of the power wires from the pump assy. Going to the electrical connector at the top mounting plate of the pump, was badly burned and melted causing the pump not to work when it warmed up along with this electrical connector. Remember this is inside the fuel tank. This could have created a serious explosion ! Toyota issued a recall for "ecm" (electronic control module) problems associated with stalling engine, sudden loss of power and engine cranks and will not start. I think some of the "ecm " problems could have been mis-diagnosed and were this burnt wire and connector from the fuel pump. On top of that this repair cost me approx. $1500. 00 but maybe it saved my life. For safety reasons alone , this should be looked into and resolved. I hope this might help someone else before they are hurt.
