Wiping out a 10 to $15,000 whole fuel system is a design defect. A HPFP needs to be designed that takes into account failure of the pump not wiping out the whole fuel system, from stem to stern... way, way, waaaaaay too much collateral damage. Damage should be limited to the pump being the only failure and the only item in need of replacing, and it should be accounted for in the basic design.
It was designed that way because it was not expected to fail.
Now that it has... what should they do?
When they probably don't have a fix for the real problem?
Should they retrofit a fail safe kit?
I'd be watching for that feature in newer models!
