5-pin multi-function relay(chinese) malfunction

Crazy, took me some time to figure out and self diagnose this...
At operating temperature my car started to shut off randomly while driving (an documented) issue on the web .
Upon cranking the car back "on" noticed the fuel pump wasn't "turning" eventually it did so i made it home but it happened repeatedly and finally i went to check Fuses ,Relays
and noticed the China 5 pin relay was extremely hot causing the relay to stop working when at temperature . i just switched to the original one that was at the lower Ac location Tested it at temperature and its all working properly , No self shut off nor Relay malfunction all normal.

CHINA 5-PIN MULTI-FUNCTION RELAY BEWARE !!!
