Engine Failure

[Ergoc5]

Add me to the list, I'm not sure if there's an official thread for us to gather so this was the first I found. Manual CT5, '22 with 19k on the odo, did proper break-in with service. I was driving the car last week and noticed performance was off under heavy accel in 2nd and 3rd gear. Turned all the TC settings off and tried again, engine was revving up but wheels weren't spinning. No codes and was running "fine" just cruising around town but dealer came and picked it up from my house last Friday. They ran a compression test on it yesterday and decided new engine + supercharger were required. No idea on how long it'll take yet at this stage but figured I'd share my experience.

Wow! So sorry to hear and after 19k miles!

Well, all manufacturers have issues don’t you know.

On a much more serious note, it would be wise to have a lemon law lawyer on speed dial.

Ugh, sickening!

What is your build date? Sorry, that sucks!

I started a list of the reported blown motors on this forum. It's far from scientific because not all people who have had this issue are on the forum, and not all on the forum who have had an issue will post about it, but I'm hopeful it will shed some light on the failure modes if nothing else.

At a glance it seems to be an issue with every model year, the bottom-end tends to give out at fairly low miles, and the lifters can fail at pretty much any mileage. I didn't include transmission but it seems like it's happened for both manuals and autos.
