Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY 2010 CHEVROLET COBALT HOME AFTER LEAVING WORK, I WAS ENTERING ONTO THE THRUWAY WHEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ACTIVATED, MY DASHBOARD READER SAID, "ENGINE POWER REDUCED", THE CAR THEN LOST ACCELERATION, STARTED TO BUCK AND SHAKE. I QUICKLY PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND LET THE CAR SIT FOR 15 MINUTES. UPON START UP, I PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE, IT BUCKED INTO GEAR AND I PROCEEDED WITH CAUTION NOT DOING MORE THAN 30-35 MPH. I WENT TO ADVANCED AUTO PARTS AND RAN THEIR FREE OBDII DIAGNOSTIC READER. THE CODE THAT CAME BACK WAS PO641 - ENGINE CONTROL MODULE - PORT #3. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CLEARED OUT AFTER 2 DAYS. THE CAR RUNS FINE NOW. VERY CONCERNED THOUGH.
