In June 2019 at 34,000 my car started to stall and the display engine check light ignited. I called the dealership and found out it was my turbo/supercharger underboost/failing code reading p0299. Had it fixed/replaced.
Jump to a little over 19,000 miles later and I am now in the same situation yet again at 53,000 miles and the turbo/supercharger is underboosting/failing yet again.
The vehicle is now again at the dealership having the turbo fixed/replaced. Is this going to happen again? Because not everyone can continue to shell out 4k every couple of years for a vehicle that's going to continue having turbo/supercharger issues. It's a complete pain in the ass to have to deal with, to say the least.
