Consumer Description

Check engine light has come on twice AFTER the car was at dealers for the recall about the knock sensor. Dealer states the recall fix was implemented, however the light came on a day or two after the vehicle was in the shop. I believe they installed a new knock sensor but I’m not sure, check engine light was off when I picked it up. It’s been approximately 5 weeks since I’ve gotten it back and the check engine light came on again. Friend had a scanner tool and used it - code indicated it was the knock sensor again. Went to dealer and was told there was nothing they could do because the code was cleared. This is a huge safety issue as I drive CA freeways with cars doing 75 mph- it will run for a limited time but it won’t let you accelerate and will get you to the dealer but you must get it to dealer in a very short window- it’s an engine problem and could put me in extreme danger ⛔️
