Consumer Description

WENT TO PASS A VEHICLE AND I FELT A SURGE THEN A SIREN SOUND STARTED COMING FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF ENGINE. WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP IT WAS A VACUUM ISSUE AND IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. WHEN I GOT TO DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A BLOWN TURBO. WONDERING IF THIS IS TIED TO THE INCIDENT I HAD WITH THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP FAILING AROUND 100K. TOO MANY MAJOR CATASTROPHIC ISSUES WITH THIS CAR. I'VE BEEN QUOTED 15,000 FOR REPAIRS ON A CAR I'M STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON AND ONLY COST 28K TO BEGIN WITH. *TR
