Consumer Description
Winter of 2023/early 2024- during very cold period, I was on the freeway where it is 70 mph, and received a warning of a power train underboost- car said low power mode. It was caused by water accumulating and freezing. According to the Cheverolet bulletin, it was a known issue and I had the car serviced with the wrap put on it required. This was a scary event because I was on the highway and could not go the speed limit and had to exit. Fast forward to this past winter: early 2025- very cold period. Again had a low power mode when I was accelerating to get on the freeway from the ramp, suddenly could not get to speed and was passed on the on-ramp- exceedingly scary and unsafe, had to drive with hazards on and exit next exit. It was an overboost error that caused it. Again, water froze in the valve. new fix is to put a "bra" on the lower part of the grill when it is below freezing and take it off when it is not freezing out. Ridiculous fix with 20 clips and it is a true safety issue.
