COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING 2019 GT3RS WITH LESS THAN 6KI MILES. WHILE DRIVING ON A HILL AND ACCELERATING, RECEIVED LOW ENGINE PRESSURE WARNING AND ENGINE LOST POWER. PORSCHE CARS NORTH AMERICA REPLACED ENTIRE MOTOR.
THE CARS AUTO IDLE OFF FUNCTION THAT SAVES FUEL BY TURNING THE ENGINE OFF AT STOP SIGNS AND LIGHTS IN INOPERATIVE. I HAVE HAD IT INTO MULTIPLE DEALERS 4 TIMES SINCE 12/2020 WITH THE COMPLAINT. IN MY OPINION THERE IS A TEMPERATURE SENSOR THAT IS MALFUNCTIONING AND NOT ALLOWING THE CAR TO GO INTO THE FUEL SAVING MODE. I AM TOLD THAT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO MAKE THIS FUNCTION WORK PROPERLY. WASN'T THE CAR CERTIFIED FOR EMISSIONS AND FUEL ECONOMY WITH THIS FUNCTION IN PLACE?
Over 5 years this costs $11,250 more in fuel than an average new vehicle.
