I FIRST NOTICED THE SMELL OF GASOLINE WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED. IF IT WAS PARKED ON A SLIGHT INCLINE, THERE WAS A PUDDLE OF GAS ON THE DRIVEWAY. BECAUSE I SAW ONLINE THAT MANY OTHERS WERE HAVING A SIMILAR PROBLEM, I CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL...BUT THERE WASN'T. I FINALLY HAD THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID OF A FIRE. WILL I BE REIMBURSED IF THERE IS FINALLY A RECALL DONE ON THIS VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE?

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND APPROACHING HER EXIT, THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING FAILED AND COMPLETELY LOCKED ON MY CLIENT'S CAR. THIS IS A DOWNHILL EXIT RAMP OFF THE HIGHWAY. HER CAR PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND SHE WAS UNABLE TO STEER HER CAR LEFT TO FOLLOW THE CURVATURE OF THE EXIT RAMP. AS A RESULT THE CAR VEERED OFF THE EXIT RAMP, STRUCK A POLE AND BEGAN TO SPIN OUT OF CONTROL. THE CAR CONTINUED TO SPIN DOWN INTO THE EMBANKMENT AND CAME TO REST AFTER LANDING ON ITS SIDE. THE CAR STOPPED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WHEELS AS IF IT WAS ABOUT TO ROLL OVER. THE CAR EVENTUALLY FELL DOWN ON ALL FOUR WHEELS AND WAS FACING ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THERE WAS A RECALL ISSUED ON THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING BUT PARTS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM WERE NOT MADE AVAILABLE TO MY CLIENT.
