 Description of the problemMy wife and i went out for a ride, i notice a loss of power while driving on 95s in rhode island, i started to pull over to the break down lane when i notice smoke out of the back of the vehicle, i came to a stop and the car filled up with smoke , i told my wife to get out and i got out but could not see, i yelled for my wife as i could not see her, the fire dept came and said they think the turbo blew, i paid over $300 to have it towed back to the dealership which confirmed the issue and it will cost over $3000 to repair, this is ridiculous the car only has 113,000 miles on it and i take care of it oil changes etc at the dealership. I have read online that numerous folks have had the same issue, i believe they have a fault engine, they already have one engine recall issue with metal in their engine, please look intoto this, we were almost killed due to the smoke and oncoming traffic not being able to see.
