Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND THE CAR IMMEDIATELY LOST POWER. A SEMI ALMOST REAR ENDED ME BECAUSE I LOST SPEED SO QUICKLY. I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND HAD TO FIGHT THE STEERING WHEEL TO GET OFF THE ROAD AS THE STEERING GOT EXTREMELY TIGHT. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THEY IDENTIFIED THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP AS FAILING. *JS
