1 Other Fuel Type Engine Turbo-charger problem of the 2019 Chevrolet Equinox

Failure Date: 08/15/2019

Our college age daughter had a potentially dangerous problem recently involving her brand new 2019 chevy Equinox losing power in the middle of traffic on the expressway! she called me crying and frantic saying that a tractor-trailer was right behind her when this happened. She managed to pull over to an exit and park in a nearby plaza parking lot. When I got there and drove the car the tach was up over 2,000 rpm's but the car was only going about 15 mph! I decided it was unsafe to drive so we had it flatbedded to the dealership where we leased the vehicle. There an experienced tech opened the hood and showed us exactly what the problem was. He said the hose from the turbo-charger had come loose! and that without that hooked up to the engine, the engine would have lost about 80% of its power! we were really upset that this happened on a brand new Equinox with only 500 miles on it! our daughter could have been killed!.
