The cost of the pump and your time. The fuel pump is located in the fuel tank and the can be accessed underneath the bottom of the rear seat.
Pull the bottom of the rear seat forward and you will see an access panel. Remove the panel. Disconnect the negative (-) pole on the battery - Have your radio code ready to reset the radio from "safe" mode. Pull the connector and the the 2 fuel supply hoses from the pump. Turn the fuel pump housing until it releases and lift it out. Replace the pump by installing a new one. Check the seal the the housing to make sure it's still good - replace if necessary. Hook up the fuel lines and the connector. Replace the panel and reconnect the negative on the battery. Start the vehicle to make sure it's working properly. If so, put the panel back on and put the seat back. Enter the codes on the radio to get it working.

If you do it your self for the first time like I did, it will cost you less money about $150 but you have to consider your time and ability to have a place to work on a car that will be leaking anti-freeze all over the place and the cost of Jack stands, tools, busted knuckles.. If I had to do it again I would pay the Nominal $300.00 for some who does this on a regular basis. Also you may need to change all of your hoses as well and that may cost a bit more. "good luck"
