description: MY 2000 BUICK PARK AVENUE WAS RECALLED FOR A DANGEROUS FUEL PUMP (NHTSA ID # 04V090000). WHILE MY CAR WAS AT A BUICK SERVICE CENTER TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP, THE DIAPHRAM OF THE NEW FUEL PUMP RUPTURED, SPRAYING GASOLINE WHICH IMMEDIATELY CAUGHT FIRE. SINCE THIS HAPPENED IN THE GARAGE, THE MECHANICS IMMEDIATELY PUT OUT THE FIRE, SO ONLY A FEW WIRES AND FUELS LINES APPEARED TO BE DAMAGED. ALTHOUGH THE BUICK SERVICE CENTER IS NOW REPAIRING THE DAMAGE,, THIS INCIDENT SUGGESTS THAT THE DIAPHRAM OF THE BUICK'S FUEL PUMP IS STILL DEFECTIVE. THE SERVICE MANAGER COULD NOT SAY WHETHER GM WOULD INVESTIGATE THIS FIRE, I'M REPORTING IT TO NHTSA SO THAT YOU MAKE SURE MY CAR IS SAFE. *JB
