| Description of the problem | When i put gas in my car it will not start afterward. First it started only when my car was turned off. When i left my car running it was ok. Now it turns off when my car is running also. The mechanic said, it may be a bad fuel pump, cost $350 to replace, but can't guarantee this will fix the issue. I see i am not the only one with this issue. Why is this not a recall?? I google it and there are so many people with same problem. Also with the car accelerating by itself. I thought i was crazy. I see now that others are having this problem as well. Everyone said i imagined it. Why is this not a recall? |
