You need to pull the washer bottle bucket down by the left, front wheel and check the plug in the wiring harness. The fuel pump power goes through it and if it has a bad connection you won't have power or ground for the pump. You also have to check the fuse and the connectors in the fuse block for overheating damage. Finally you need to check the inertia switch. The ground for the fuel pump goes through it. It could be bad, the connector could be burnt, or you may not have the newer switch. If the inertia switch does NOT have a white paint splotch you need to replace it as per the recall. It is also supposed to be relocated to the side of the footwell, not on the Lamba counter. When you have bad connections in a circuit it drops the voltage in the circuit causing the load to draw more amps. The additional amperage casues more heat to be created increasing the resistance which increases the current. Bottom line, a bad connection in a circuit will cause ALL of the connections in that circuit to overheat.
