Consumer Description

MY DAUGHTERS 2003 CHEVROLET CAVALIER SUDDENLY DIED ON THE INTERSTATE WITH NO WARNING. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE REPAIR SHOP. THE FUEL PUMP IS BAD. IT ONLY HAS 63,000 MILES ON IT. THE REPAIR COST ME $600. I'M FINDING OUT THAT THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM FOR THIS MODEL AND YEAR. I'VE NEVER IN MY LIFETIME OWNING NUMEROUS CARS HAD A FUEL PUMP FAIL. THIS WAS A DANGEROUS SITUATION. MY DAUGHTER WAS ALMOST HIT BY A SEMI WHEN HER CAR DIED. THIS NEEDS TO BE A FACTORY RECALL . *TR
