Either you are totally unlucky person or something else (car wise) is causing the failure.
I monitor failure rates on Lasso pumps and currently we are at less than 0.5%.
So I suspect something else is going on. As DOC says it could be the the driving style or ?
Nobody in my customer base has the same issues of multiple failures.
I feel your frustration.
PS: I hope that is not the metal impeller on the Geba kissing the block.

[QUOTE=docmirror;15079402]What was the dwell time between the 2k miles in the past 9 months? Do you drive it short distances often, or did you drive it quite a bit and let it sit for a few months? If this is a seal/bearing failure, this kind of drive cycle is important to know.
During the season I drive the car most every day 30 miles round trip to the train and sometimes once a week 100 miles or so. this WP saw this and a run to and from Frenzy then the car got put away for 5 to 6 months. Odd that the frequency of driving would cause an issue, I've owned probably 100 cars in my life time, which I drove at the same frequency, not one of them had this problem.
