Consumer Description

After seeing a mechanic the problem was a rod bearing connector failure which caused metal shavings to clog and restrict the oil flow, starting as a small knock and quickly turned into a loud horrible knock, power failure and ultimately my engine to seize. the same engine as the 2015-2016 Velosters recall, a 1.6L gamma gdi engine, the same exact issues and problems accrued and caused that’s specific model to recall, but I believe that many more models with this specific engine are faulty due to the same problem.
