I think that others have had this similar problem. Last night after driving on the highway for 45 minutes at ~80mph in 54 degree temps, I got off the highway, and my MO bucked a little, and then would not go over 5 mph. No matter how far I press the accelerator, the rpms would not move, and the car would just move slowly. I switched in and out of "D", and still just a slow move forward. There was no lurching as other people have described, just very slowly moving. So, I pulled over, turned off the car, then started it up 10 seconds later. Everything was then fine.
I called the dealership this morning, and they are going to look at it tomorrow. Though, once they learned it was running fine now, they really didn't want to see it. I am hoping that it threw a code when the problem happened, and they will capture that.
Anybody have any thoughts? I have a 140 mile roundtrip commute (almost all highway) each day, so I am guessing the problem will come back again. An it may happen in an unsafe place.
Thanks,
Andy
