STEERING
MINI COOPER POWER STEERING PROBLEMS (2007 AND 2008 MODELS) - I NOTICED THE REPORTS ON POWER STEERING. I HAVE LEASED 2 MINIS AND FOUND THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM WHEN TRYING TO PARALLEL PARK IN NEW YORK CITY. WHEN TRYING TO FIT INTO A SMALL SPACE--WHICH REQUIRES LOTS OF TWISTS, TURNS OF THE STEERING WHEEL REPEATEDLY UNTIL CAR IS SQUEEZED IN--THE POWER STEERING ON BOTH YEARS OF BOTH CARS THAT I HAD--AND THE 2007 I TEST DROVE AT THE DEALER--ALL POPPED OUT. IT SEEMS THAT REPEATED TURNING MAKES THE POWER STEERING TURN OFF. IF YOU WAIT A FEW SECONDS ONCE IT STARTS GETTING HARDER TO TURN, THEN IT WILL LOOSEN UP AGAIN. I ONLY HAD THIS PROBLEM WHEN TRYING TO PARK--SO NOT A DANGEROUS SITUATION, JUST ANNOYING. *TR

POWER TRAIN
ELECTRONIC FUEL PUMP FAILED TWICE WITHIN A YEAR. MANUAL TRANSMISSION - CLUTCH DOES NOT ENGAGE GEARS PROPERLY. FRICTION POINT IS VAGUE AND UNENGAGING. GEAR SLIPS. REQUIRES EXCEEDINGLY HIGH REV. COUNTS/GAS TO ENGAGE IN GEAR PROPERLY. CAR STALLS MORE THAN NORMAL/OFTEN. OVERALL FUEL INJECTION/ECU MAPPING/CLUTCH ISSUES ARE EVIDENTLY AND REPEATS TO BE PROBLEM AREAS DESPITE PARTS REPLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT (ECU RE-MAP). FROM THE OWNER'S EXPERIENCE, THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING ON THE FREEWAY DUE TO FUEL PUMP FAILURES (TWICE) THUS CREATING ROAD HAZARD FOR FELLOW DRIVERS ON THE FREEWAY AT HIGH SPEED AS WELL AS MY OWN PERSONAL SAFETY. ALSO, DUE TO STALLING ISSUES OFF THE LINE, ENTERING FREEWAY AFTER METER-SIGNAL IS ALSO DANGEROUS IN MULTIPLE OCCASIONS CREATING POTENTIAL THREAT TO SAFETY. MANUFACTURER NEED TO ADDRESS BROAD ISSUE OF FUEL SYSTEM/POWERTRAIN/CLUTCH BEFORE ANYONE GETS SERIOUS HURT OR INJURED TO SUDDEN IMMOBILITY/STALLS. IN PARTICULAR, THE CLUTCH IN MANUAL TRANSMISSION IS SO BAD THAT IT DOES NOT FULFILL THE INTENDED FUNCTION OF ENGAGING GEARS. *TR
