Mini diagnostics identified the power steering pump and fan needed to be replaced and said it was infact the same issue being investigated by NHTSA but declined to assist in repairs. . $1200. 00. . . Standing only behind the 30,000mi/3 yr warranty expiration. Please recall the 2005 Mini for this issue. . .
Trunk door opened while driving around 50mph. Items in trunk flew out. Another driver pulled up alongside me to notify me of the situation.
