Last week, my car did not work. It can start, engine had no problem. But then it can not move even you step on the gas. The I found a guy fix the car. He checked it and said it was the fuel pump's problem. So I order a new fuel pump and fuel filter in autozone. The guy fixed it and the car could move again. But just one week. The same problem happed again. The situation is similar with the last time. Engine can start, but no fuel in the tank. The guy who fixed it checked it again and said the fuel pump broke again. He said the fuel pump from autozone is in low quality. I do not know what happened?

Low quality fuel pumps are known to fail very easily, especially if you run your tank at or below the half mark. Use only the dealer brand pump when dealing with the fuel pump.
