Consumer Description
2020 mx5 rf club edition with 65k miles lost engine power while driving in rush hour traffic. Car would not re-start, required a tow, and I was left stranded and without transportation. Since car was inoperable it was towed to nearby reputable mechanic and per the mechanic fuel pump has failed. Same fuel pump has been recalled by other manufacturers and hundreds of thousands of 2018-2019 mx5's have been recalled due to a similar defective fuel pump. I believe my car is effected by a defective fuel pump and should be included in the recall and replaced by the manufacturer free of charge. Part can be inspected. Part has been inspected by an independent service center. No warning signs prior to the issue occurring, battery and engine lights appeared as vehicle lost power.
