2010 MINI Cooper S Fuel system Problems

“The car completely quits running while you are driving it. Check engine light comes on but car has already died. Have to coast to a stop with no power steering since the engine has died. Car will not always restart. Sometimes it will crank but not turn over. Sometimes it will restart. Today it died while I was going 65mph on the interstate a d I had to dodge across 3 lanes of traffic to get to the shoulder. Have had this exact issue before. 3 yrs ago I replaced the high pressure fuel pump for this exact same problem. This was a $1500 repair cost. …”

“Purchased car april 2014 w 46,000 miles. Warranty history showed valve gasket replaced. At 64000 miles dealer says it needs to be replaced again. Not told at purchase - at Mini dlr - that car consumes a quart of oil every 700 miles which I was just told by local servicing dealer that they consider that normal. Leak at gasket contributes to air infiltration and poor oil consumption I was told. I would not have purchased the car knowing this. It adds considerably to the operating costs. …”

“High pressure fuel pump failed, Mini has issued ext warranties o the 2009, 2001, 20012 models because of this issue but not this model. Car is below 100,000 miles if these years have problems and now I am having a problem should the 2010 models be covered”

“Got the high pressure fuel pump issue, the car will not start and stall and will not keep in ideal until stepping on the gas over 3000 RPM for over 1 mins, it stalled on local street couple times. The dealership said Mini cover up to 7 years only.”

“Just had to have a high pressure fuel pump replaced in my Mini Cooper S convertible and had . I understand that all the fuel pumps in this year make of car were recalled except the one on the convertible?? Please let me know why the fuel pump is any different? It actually went out on an interstate and I had to pull over and was almost struck by a semi truck. I have the bill for the repair which cost me over $1400.00..”
