| Fuel Pump problems |
My fuel pump is knocking, shaking, causing my car to cut off, and causing the vhs light to come on which is a signal that my brakes are being effected. The staff at carland Acura played games with me on the phone when I told them there was a recall regarding this problem. They kept putting me on hold and transferring be from one department to another. The manager, eric, argued with me stating that their was no recall on the fuel pump/fuel system because he had already researched it. Can someone help me with getting my car repaired. I have small children that I have to transport in my vehicle. Can someone make a dealership, Acura, or Honda accountable for my vehicle so that I can travel safely.
The contact owns a 2005 Acura Tl. While driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle failed without warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be repaired under NHTSA campaign id number 07v097000 (fuel system, gasoline:delivery:fuel pump). Three months after the repair, the contact was unable to start the vehicle and it was towed to a local dealer. A mechanic stated that the fuel pump assembly was defective and they made the replacement. Within the same year, the vehicle failed twice in the same manner as the first failure. The dealer replaced the same component at the contact's expense. The manufacturer has not provided any assistance. The failure mileage was 45,000 and current mileage was 81,000.
