My car jerked one day when I tried using the cruise control and after a min I was not able to use it anymore when I got home 30 mins after my car didn't turn over anymore I changed the fuel pump and the filter is 2-3 months old when I turn my key I don't hear my gas primeline turn and when I drove it before this a few days before it would constantly make a buzzing noise behind my dashboard what could it be?

check fuse and relay under hood then see if power is going to pump. if you are getting power then the pump may be bad.
