My 2019 Ascent Touring (51k miles) has a problem where it will intermittently throw on (and certainly never when the dealer has it) the check engine lights.
Symptoms (level 1):
- Loss of power steering
- All EyeSight/telematics stop working
- Brake indicator
- ABS indicator
Level 2:
- Loss of power, drowsiness
- It won’t go above 30-35 mph
- A/T temperature warning
Level 1 will happen, then after a few miles of driving, level 2 will begin. this has happened 2 times now, and the second time i stopped at an Auto Zone to retrieve the codes (i have them for symptoms L1 and L2 – don’t have the report right now). Took it to the dealer, they said “thanks for the codes, we deleted them and can’t reproduce them. Return it when it does it again.”
I bought a BlueDriver and a few days ago and managed to get the L1 codes (attached). After clearing them I got another report (no light this time) with code C1231 for “WIRE WHEEL SPEED SYSTEM INCREASED/QUICK ENTRY CONFIRMED”
So my questions:
- Has anyone seen/heard of a similar problem?
- Could the speed sensor be causing all this havoc?
- The best way to diagnose?
YOU!
