12 v fuel filter failure!

first off don't dump on me for buying an aftermarket fuel filter,last week i installed an aftermarket fuel filter from "Part source"in halifax n.s. they supply Canadian tire with parts.on my way home from our yearly camp trip i noticed the fuel gauge was dropping like a V10.i stopped at a fueling station and the entire side and underside of my truck was covered in diesel,and all under the hood was wet with diesel...the buttom of the filter where the seperator threads in was cracked and spraying fuel everywhere.EXTREME FIRE HAZARD.not to mention an enviromental issue.GKI is the brand name of the filter it was blue in color and "Made in china"on the side.check and make sure you don't have one of these on your truck.thanks JJ
