| 2010 | FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL | DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT 45 MPH THE CAR DASH DINGED, I LOOKED DOWN AND IMMEDIATELY THE CAR LOST POWER. I WAS ALMOST IN MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS AS THE CAR SLOWED RAPIDLY WITHOUT BRAKE LIGHTS (THE CAR ENGINE STOPPED SO SUDDENLY THAT IT TOOK THREE OR FOUR SECONDS TO COMPREHEND THE SITUATION AND ACTIVATE HAZARD LIGHTS AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION) TO WARN OTHER CARS THAT I NO LONGER HAVE POWER. ALSO, TO TRY AND MOVE OUT OF HARMS WAY WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AS THE CAR HAD NO ENGINE POWER. THE CAR WAS EVENTUALLY TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY DETERMINED THAT METAL FROM THE FUEL PUMP WAS IN THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM. *TR |
