NHTSA Complaint #11431055 — 2018 GMC SIERRA 1500

Vehicle suddenly went into Reduced Engine Power while driving in heavy traffic. Vehicle immediately began to slow down and although there was some throttle response it was difficult to maneuver through traffic to get to the side of the road. This event happened around the 31,000 mile mark. The Reduced Engine Power message came on, but I do not remember hearing an audible alert. Being a 40 year Automotive Technician for GM, I am familiar with pulling codes and replacing parts. I called the dealership to see if this was covered by warranty and was told no. After pulling the codes, I personally replaced the Throttle Body Sensor and the Accelerator Pedal Assembly, but the vehicle continued to go into Reduced Engine Power mode. I took the vehicle into the dealership and they diagnosed the cause as a corroded connector. The connector was replaced and the vehicle was returned to me. After a little over one month and less than 1,000 miles the vehicle is once again going into Reduced Engine Power mode. I can have my vehicle available for inspection if necessary.
