I AM DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR GOES INTO A SAFETY MODE. THE IS WAS APPEARS TO BE A WRENCH THAT READS "SEE OWNERS MANUAL" THE ENGINE SOUNDS LIKE IT SPUTTER AND THERE IS NO ACCELERATION WHEN THE GAS IS PRESSED. I HAVE TO PULL OVER SAFELY AND RESTART MY VEHICLE AND THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY FOR ABOUT 10 MILES.
