Car stalled out while driving at 45 miles per hour. difficult to control with no power steering and power brakes. had i been driving around a corner, on the highway or going down a hill, this would have resulted in an accident. auto had to be towed, would not start again. dealer said problem was the fuel pump failure. fuel pump also failed on 08/04/2003. in that instance, the auto was stopped and would not start. appears fuel pump design is defective and very unsafe. i did notice other complaints on your web site for this model/year car that show the auto stalling out while being driven. these might also be related to the same problem. *la
