Turning a Blown Turbo into a Blessing
Macon, GA – NARSA member Global Parts Distributors, LLC (gpd) and Auto Air of Macon restored and donated a Chevrolet Cruze to Next Step Recovery Ministries.
When an employee’s Cruze suffered a turbo failure, gpd and Auto Air of Macon chose to purchase the vehicle and commit to restoring the vehicle for a good cause. Auto Air of Macon, a
division of gpd specializing in automotive A/C and general repair, replaced the turbo and discovered additional components needing attention.
With gpd supplying the necessary replacement parts - including turbocharger, engine oil & filter, ignition coil, cam shaft position sensor, coolant temperature sensor, engine coolant reservoir, cooling fan, condenser with drier, compressor, suction & discharge hose lines, and expansion valve - the team completed the repairs. Each repair not only improved the vehicle’s performance but also served as a learning experience for the technicians.
Once restored, the Cruze was donated to Next Step Recovery Ministries, a local nonprofit that provides recovery programs, transitional housing, and life skills training. The vehicle will be used to help program participants access jobs, appointments, and community resources.
