What is the rationale of such a barrier? It causes more traffic as it prevents the high occupancy vehicles to enter hov lane and adds more cars to bumper to bumper traffic. It discourages people from car pooling since reduces the effectiveness of the hov lanes. …”

The fuel pump harness was replaced, but the failures continued. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer a second time and the throttle body was cleaned, but the failures continued. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer a third time and the supercharger was replaced. The failure was remedied. …”
