 Description of the problemThe car completely quits running while you are driving it. Check engine light comes on but car has already died. Have to coast to a stop with no power steering since the engine has died. Car will not always restart. Sometimes it will crank but not turn over. Sometimes it will restart. Today it died while i was going 65mph on the interstate a d i had to dodge across 3 lanes of traffic to get to the shoulder. Have had this exact issue before. 3 yrs ago i replaced the high pressure fuel pump for this exact same problem. This was a $1500 repair cost. Mini cooper said that 2010 mini coopers were not covered. Only minis up to tne year 2009 were covered in that safety recall so i paid out of pocket. However, mini cooper used the same part that had been recalled on my 2010. It failed in 2017 and the replacement part has now failed again. Mini cooper called it a "known" issue, but would not cover the replacement cost in 2017. Repair order number with mini cooper dealer: 262724 and part number 13-51-7-588-879
