 Description of the problemWhile driving down a busy two lane road i pulled out into an intersection in an attempt to make a left hand turn when the car stalled in the middle of traffic. I turned the car off and turned it back on again and it worked. However, later that day it stalled again while it was sitting at an intersection. I brought it to the dealership for repair and they said it was not covered under warranty even though i still had one. They said there was a fuel leak at the fuel composition sensor. They replaced the sensor. Gm extended special coverage # 17097 in may 1, 2017 for 2011-2013 chevy equinox and gmc terrains that are equipped with flex fuel due to a fuel leak at the fuel composition sensor but they did not include my 2011 model terrain that is not equipped with flex fuel but it should have been. This issue was out of my control as it was a manufacturing defect in the fact that they placed the composition sensor below the frame exposing it to damage from road debris.
