WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN HOUSTON AN ENGINE POWER REDUCED LIGHT CAME ON AND MY VEHICLE LURCHED AND REDUCED IN SPEED FROM APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH TO 10MPH CAUSING CARS BEHIND ME TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION AND ALMOST CAUSING A MULTIPLE CAR MAJOR ACCIDENT. I FRANTICALLY KEPT TRYING TO START THE CAR AND WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE FEEDER ROAD. SINCE THIS INCIDENT I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FOR THIS ISSUE AND AM SURPRISED THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUED. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS ISSUE AND I AM SURPRISED THAT MORE HASN'T BEEN DONE. *TR
