| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: When exiting the freeway after driving approximately 30 minutes, the cavalier quit running at the top of the ramp. this was at evening rush hour and several cars were behind, trying to exit. i could not restart the vehicle. cars were honking as i was in the lane and could not get out of the way. we had the vehicle towed. we had the entire fuel pump/sender unit replaced. vehicle then seemed to operate okay, but two days later after driving on the freeway again, the exact same problem occurred. this was morning rush hour and the exit lane on the off-ramp had no shoulder... cars were coming quickly up the ramp and i was nearly hit more than once, even with my hazard lights on. towed vehicle again. told that it was a fuse. replaced fuse and took vehicle again. same problem happened a third time. i replaced fuse. took to dealer who said that wire was loose from fuel pump replacement. they secured wire. has now happened five more times. i have fuses in car in case of problem. car is now at electrical shop for review. last time it happened on july 1, i was entering the hov lane on the freeway! luckily there was a small area in which to stop. replaced fuse and get on... this is very scary as it just quits without notice (no check engine light or anything!) |
