I OWN A 2003 CHEVROLET CAVALIER, AND EARLIER THIS MORNING, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO CRANK AFTER I WAS ABLE TO ROLL IT INTO A PARKING SPOT. AFTER SOME TROUBLE SHOOTING, I WAS ABLE TO NARROW IT DOWN TO THE FUEL PUMP WAS NOT COMING ON WHEN THE IGINITION WAS TURNED ON. I CAUGHT A RIDE BACK TO MY HOUSE AND BEGAN DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH AND NOTICED THIS WAS A COMMON TRAIT FOR THE 2003 CHEVROLET CAVALIER. THAT IS FUEL PUMP FAILURE AROUND 60,000+ MILES. MY CAVALIER HAS JUST A LITTLE OVER 64,000 MILES ON IT. MY CAR'S FAILURE WAS PERFECTLY DESCRIBED IN THE MANY FORUMS I READ OVER. THAT'S WHEN I DECIDED TO CHECK FOR ANY OTHER RECALLS ON THIS YEAR CAR. I NOTICED THAT THE NHTSA #PE07033 AND THE ENGINEERING ANALYSIS #EA07-015 PERTAINED DIRECTLY TO MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE WITH THIS PROBLEM. *CN

FUEL PUMP WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING CAUSING VEHICLE TO STALL WHILE ON ROADWAY AND HAD TO BE PUSHED TO A SAFE LOCATION. THERE WAS NO PREVIOUS WARNING THAT FUEL PUMP WAS FAILING.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR TO GO GET GROCERIES WITH MY 2 YR OLD SON. THE CAR HAS NO PROBLEMS AND DROVE FINE THERE. I ATTEMPTED TO PULL OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AND MY CAR STALLED. I TRIED AGAIN AND IT STALLED ONCE MORE. I MANAGED TO TURN THE ENGINE OVER ENOUGH TIMES TO GET IT OUT OF THE MIDDLE OF THE PARKING LOT. IT WAS AROUND 8PM AND GETTING COLD AND I HAD NOT ONLY TO DEAL WITH THIS, BUT HAVE A YOUNG CHILD OUT IN THE COLD WHETHER WHEN HE SHOULD BE GOING TO BED. I CALLED MY BOYFRIEND AND HE PICKED US UP AND HE LOOKED AT THE CAR A BIT SINCE HE KNOWS QUITE A BIT ABOUT CARS. HE COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING OBVIOUS SO WE HAD IT TOWED FOR TESTING TO MECHANIC HE KNOWS. THE MECHANIC WAS GENEROUS ENOUGH TO GIVE US A BIT...

MY DAUGHTER WAS MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY GOING 45 MPH WHEN HER CAR JUST STOPPED. IT WOULDN'T RESTART AND SHE WAS STUCK IN A TRAVEL LANE. THERE WAS ONLY ABOUT 2 FEET BETWEEN THE LANE AND THE STEEL MEDIAN BARRIER SO ALMOST HALF OF HER CAR WAS IN THE TRAVEL LANE. WE CALLED THE POLICE AND THEY STOPPED AND REDIRECTED TRAFFIC UNTIL THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED. THIS HAPPENED ON A FRIDAY NIGHT AT 10:30PM. *TR

MAKING AN ADDITION TO NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE07033: I WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY 2003 CHEVY CAVALIER'S TRAC LIGHT CAME ON (STATING THAT THE ETS SYSTEM WAS DISABLED) AND THEN THE CAR STALLED. CAR WAS RUNNING PERFECT BEFOREHAND AND HAD NO TELLTALE SIGNS OF FAILURE. I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT INTO THE CENTER TURN LANE AND OUT OF HARM'S WAY. I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE CAR. IT WOULD CRANK, BUT WOULDN'T TURN OVER. CAR HAD ABOUT HALF TANK OF GAS. CAR WAS TOWED TO NEAREST REPAIR SHOP WHERE I WAS TOLD THE FUEL PUMP WENT. CAR HAS ONLY 61,000 MILES AND THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. ACCORDING TO HTTP://WWW.TOPIX.COM/FORUM/AUTOS/CHEVROLET-CAVALIER/TVINIC5TFU5SFSI5H THIS IS BECOMING A COMMON PROBLEM. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY POSE A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN IF THIS HAPPENS DURING HIGH-TRAFFIC, ON THE FREEWAY, ETC., AND RESULT IN A CRASH. *TR

FAILED FUEL PUMP ON A 2003 CHEVY CAVALIER. *AK

CAR DIED ON HIGHWAY....HAD IT TOWED INTO THE DEALER. I HAD THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED AT A COST OF $978.47. WHILE AT THE DEALER I SPOKE WITH ANOTHER PERSON HAVING THE SAME REPAIR DONE FOR THE 3RD TIME ON THE SAME MODEL AND YEAR CAR. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND MANY PEOPLE WITH THIS MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR CAR HAVING THE SAME REPAIR MADE. THERE IS AN OBVIOUS ISSUE THAT MUST BE HANDLED BY GM. PLEASE HELP US WITH THIS. WE COULD HAVE BEEN IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AS THE CAR JUST DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY WITH NO NOTICE. THANK YOU
