Yes, a failed pump or even a clogged fuel filter on a PZEV requires
replacing the entire fuel tank. It seems that for the most part it's being
counted as a "emissions related component" and therefore under the 150,000
mile mandatory emissions warranty. But maybe not.

I remember attending an auto show back in the 90's when Cadillac was
pushing 100K without a tune up. I asked about the cost when the 100K was up, the
reply was "We don't sell used cars". That is probably wide spread in the
industry, but rarely spoken. With car loans running out to 7 and 8 years, the
manufacturers will probably attempt to push everything out to 150,000. PS,
there is still an outstanding recall on the tank in my '87 Scirocco (known
rust out problem), I had better get it in before it turns 100K.
