“Car was parked in my driveway. Tried to start vehicle, battery failed and unable to recharge. Removed failed battery replaced with new battery, started car and wrench and engine light came on. Unable to accelerate vehicle, drives 5 miles per hour. Online chats speak of failed throttle body, one post states there is a recall but I do not find in on the NHTSA website. Did find the airbag recall with no solution yet. Please advise.”

NHTSA complaint #10668894, filed 2014-12, 95,000 miles“Was driving down the highway at 75 MPH with cruise control set. The wrench light and traction control light came on , cruise control turned off and lost power and speed. I had to pull off into the ditch to avoid an accident and drive down the shoulder to a rest stop. I turned off the car and let it sit for for 5 minutes and the turned it back on and it ran fine. After reading other issues like mine I'm thinking it may be the throttle body or traction control sensors.”
