ABC News launched an investigation into BMW vehicles that are equipped with twin-turbo engines for problems concerning the fuel pumps of these vehicles. Some 130,000 BMW's may experience a failure of the high pressure fuel pump which may cause it to shake, vibrate and unexpectedly slow down while driving. This can put the driver into a dangerous situation.
