3 Check Engine Light On problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2020

I have only had the vehicle since 11/2019. It twice has had the check engine light to come on. The first time it was in 12/2019. The check engine light was on for about a week. The auto start was not working, and the only issue I seen was that if it sat running for a while like for instances, warming up, it flooded and the engine would continue to run a few seconds after ignition key was taken out of the ignition. Engine would stop after bubbling to a stop. Then the check light went out and everything worked properly. But, on 2/1/2020, my check engine light came on again. My auto start is not working again. As long the check engine light is on, the vehicle will not auto start. The car is again flooding out after engine shut down. After ignition key is taken out of ignition. The engine will run for a few seconds and then bubble to a engine stop. Wonder if other customers has had problems like this too? but, that is not normal for a vehicle to have a check engine like to come on and it interferes with the auto start and cause the vehicle to flood out like it does.

4 Check Engine Light On problem

Failure Date: 10/26/2018

Stopped at a light and car just stalled without warning. Put the car on park and put my blinkers on. Looked at dashboard and no check engine light on. Turned car off and on then it started to drive but stalled 4 more times after I came to a full stop at a light. Used the fixd app and it detected 1 problem code p0011 intake camshaft position sensor and the test turned the check engine light on and explained that variable valve/camshaft timing in the internal combustion engine control the intake and exhaust gases in and out of the gas combustion chamber. Sensor should last as long as your car but can become damaged due to wear and tear but my car only has 93000 hwy miles and is only 4 yrs old.

5 Check Engine Light On problem

Failure Date: 11/09/2017

I just hit 105k on my vehicle and the intake camshaft position timing is causing my SUV to shut off while stopped. I was pulled halfway into a major highway when the light turned green I went to take off and the engine died. I tried to see if there was maybe a recall but I did not find one for my VIN number. Anyone else's check engine light coming on and throwing this code?.
