There doesn't seem to be anything in the owner's manual suggesting that there is an impact-activated fuel pump shut-off switch equipped on the CX-7. So, you've been driving it for 2 weeks since the accident and now it won't start or it hasn't started since the accident? Did any exhaust parts get damaged possibly causing an exhaust restriction? You might try the flooded engine procedure on page 7-14 of the manual. Fully depress the accelerator while cranking the engine until it starts (for up to 10 seconds). If it fails to start, stop cranking the engine, release the accelerator, then crank the engine again until it starts (for up to 10 seconds). Does it have fuel or does it look like the fuel tank might have sustained some damage? If all else fails, is it still under warrenty?

Dear Friends, i disassembled the dash on my HD, to manually move the airflow vents and solve the "mode" problem, when this impact off rocker switch appeared, it has 3 positions on, off and impact off in the middle, anyone can tell me if it has something to do with the a/c or indeed with fuel? also when i was moving the dash i accidentally press it, so i dont know in which position was, hope to receive some answers soon, and thanks
