During the first incident, I was driving and heard a loud whirling sound then smoke started coming out the exhaust. I was told the problem was with the turbo charger. Then I had them replaced three months down the road while driving my car lost power. The throttle control light came on and I couldn't move the car. I left the car where it was, then came back the next day and it drove fine I took it to the repair shop in the mechanic couldn't find any problems and today when I went to pick the car up the car started smoking again no check engine light or any type of service light came on.
