RE: Recall Campaign No. 23V-337 It has been roughly half-of-a-year and MINI has not offered a solution. My car lost power while driving and it appears to be related to this issue--that is only my NON-EXPERT opinion. Can NHTSA direct BMW/MIONI to solve this problem, it's is looking like more than $1k to fix their issue. The vehicle is not operational. This situation is unfair.
Engine quits while driving causing an unsafe condition. The car stopped numerous times while on the freeway. It starts back up but stalls again later. There are no check engine lights and the local repair shop indicates that it may be a problem with the Footwell Computer Mudule and specifically the soldering on the Low Pressure Fuel Pump Relay causing it to intermittently fail.
Difficulty starting the vehicle. On city streets or the highway the car acts like it isn't getting consistent fuel therefore it "hesitates" as if it were going to die in the middle of driving the vehicle. We believe it is the high pressure fuel pump as we have had the heads cleaned of all carbon and spark plugs have been replaced. Furthermore there is a current recall on the high pressure fuel pump for the years 2007, 2008, and 2009.
The contact owns a 2010 MINICooper clubman. While driving 40 mph, the contact took the vehicle to a local dealer where it was diagnosed that the water pump was defective. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was at the mechanic shop pending repair. The manufacturer was notified and stated that the vehicle was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was 91,000.
