Consumer Description

I GOT MY CAR SERVICES AT 41094. THEY INSPECTED NOTHING WAS FOUND CRITICAL AT THAT TIME. THEN SUDDENLY ONE DAY DURING DRIVING ON THE STREET AT ABOUT 35 MPH THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON (MILAGE ~45480). I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING SOME ACCELERATION LAG ISSUES LATELY BUT THOSE WILL COME AND GO, THE CAR WILL TAKE LONGER TIME TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS PRESSED. SO, I DROPPED IT OFF TO THE DEALER. THEY HAVE FOUND THAT THE TURBO CONNECTOR AND THE TURBOCHARGER WAS FULL OF OIL. THIS INDEED IS COVERED UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. SO, THEY REPLACED THE TURBO CHARGER. I HAVE RECEIVED MY CAR BACK WITH THE REPLACED TURBO CHARGER AND I DON'T EXPERIENCE THE ACCELERATION LAG ANYMORE. MY COMPLAINT: I THINK THIS DOES EFFECT THE SAFETY BECAUSE WHILE ENTERING THE FREEWAY YOU NEED TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE AND IF IT DOESN'T HAPPEN IN A TIMELY MANNER THEN IT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. CAR ACCELERATES SUDDENLY AFTER THE LAG.
