Consumer Description

I was driving on a highway over 55 MPH when the Power Limitation Indicator symbol, the red warning symbol and the Emission control system flashed on which immediately limited my maximum speed to 45 MPH. This instant deceleration in high-speed traffic almost caused the car behind me to rear-end my car. I put on my flashers and exited the highway ASAP. The error light stayed on until the car's electric battery had been drained and the gasoline engine was being used 100%. Two weeks later the Power Limitation Indicator symbol flashed on again but this time I was on local roads traveling at 35 mph thus the car did not decelerate. Again, after draining the car's electric battery the Indicator symbol went away. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Propulsion System and yes How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The instant deceleration of the vehicle in fast moving traffic was a potential accident situation. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? The dealer cannot replicate the error message nor knows how to fix it. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Yes, the Propulsion system service required warning symbol and message.
