DRIVING ON I95 NEAR LUMBERTON NC AT 78MPH IN ECON MODE WITH CRUISE ON, WENT TO PASS VEHICLE AFTER CRUISE SLOWED ME DOWN, STEPPED ON GAS AND RESPONSE FELT DIFFERENT, REALIZED I WAS SLOWING DOWN WHILE STEPPING ON THE GAS. NOTICED CEL LIGHT AND CONTINUED TO SLOW DOWN. I THOUGHT CAR WAS DRIFTING BUT THE RPMS STILL SHOWED ENGINE ON. GOT TO SAFETY APRON AND REALIZED CAR WAS IN LIMP MODE. MANAGED TO GET TO EXIT RAMP. SITTING ON RAMP NOTICED THAT THE ENGINE, WHEN YOU TAPPED THE GAS PEDAL, WAS ROUGH BUT SEEMED TO IDLE OK. TOWED TO NEARBY DEALER. THEY SAID IT HAD A P0300 HISTORY CODE BUT NO CURRENT CODE. THEY CLEARED IT, TEST DROVE AND GAVE IT BACK TO ME. CONTINUED BY TRIP TO VIRGINIA WITH NO PROBLEMS. CAR HAD 7251 MILES. NO PROBLEMS BEFORE THIS. PREVIOUS NIGHT (31ST) WE GASSED UP AND DROVE AN HOUR+ TO FLORENCE IN RAIN. STAYED THE NIGHT AND STARTED NEXT DAY. WE HAD DRIVEN ANOTHER HOUR+ WHEN THIS HAPPENED.
