Owner Complaints (6)
When you plugged a Metromile Pulse insurance tracking device into your car's computer port, your engine started misfiring during cold starts, causing rough idle and violent bucking in gear. Your mechanic confirmed the device itself is causing the problem — when it's unplugged, the misfiring stops completely. This repeated stress on the engine could potentially damage your crankshaft bearings and drivetrain over time. The issue will likely require either replacing the defective device or having a technician reprogram your engine control module to work properly with it.
