Fuel pump failure in a 2000 Mercury Mystique, causing loss of power to engine & loss of power steering & brakes. I almost hit a light pole tring to get the car pulled over. The auto only has 2664 miles on it. If wife would have been driving, doubtful she wouldnt have been able to keep control of car, Ford knows they have a problem with fuel pumps, when are they going to responsable for their actions.

Starting in June 2000, when A/C was turned on, an obnoxious musty odor was present, then on 12-09-00 with heater turned on and driving 60 mph to work, became very ill and disoriented, later taken by ems, on 3-27-01, when leaving for work and turning out of drivie way, car stalled in middle of street and wouldn't start. Took to dealer fuel pump was replaced, dash was warpped and had to be replace because adhesive was coming off back of dash, fumes or odors from any of these components may have caused me to become totally disoriented which caused me to hit a concrete barrier while driving.
