Consumer Description

Driving in moderate to heavy rain in Ozarks. Car in front. Accelerated hard (under turbo boost) and pulled in left lane to pass. As soon as I got next to car in right lane, my car automatically braked very hard. It then released brake. All kinds of warning lights went off, engine outline (misfire) light was on. Car was in some kind of limp mode. Slowed considerably. Could barely accelerate. Proceeded to drive in this mode at approximately 50 mph for one mile until spot to pull over. Pulled over and shut car off for 30 second. Restarted car and everything was normal. Returned home within one week (400 miles) Checked trouble codes, none present.
