1 Fuel Pump problem

Failure Date: 06/09/2010

I was driving down the road, in my 2007 Toyota Corolla, when suddenly many of my indicator lights went on and the engine went dead, I also lost my power steering and my capability of braking/stopping. Thankfully I was only going about 20 miles per hour and my car came to a stop on its own, on a non-busy road. I was then able to turn the engine back on and drive 10 minutes back home. This was the first time this had happened in the three years of owning my car. Once home I called my service garage to make an appointment. I then went to start my car to drive it there and it would not turn over to start. After having it towed it was diagnosed that the fuel pump needed to be replaced.

2 Fuel Pump problem

Failure Date: 06/13/2008

While driving on the highway, the rpms dropped and there was a total loss of power. I had to coast to the side of the highway, the engine light came on. The car had approx. 19,500 miles on it. I had the car towed to the dealer and they replaced the computer module and the fuel pump. Four days later the car died again while driving and I had to have it towed a second time and the dealer replaced the fuel pump and gasket. The car has 26,000 miles on it now and has not repeated this incident. Needless to say, my perception of quality is negative.
