Typical fuel system symptoms owners report

  • Owners report sudden loss of engine power while driving, often at highway speed, with the vehicle unable to accelerate.
  • Several describe the dashboard displaying a "full accessory power active" message with no check engine light, followed by the engine shutting off and requiring the vehicle to be put in park before restarting.
  • Multiple complaints point to the electronic throttle body (ETB) malfunctioning, sometimes right after dealer replacement, causing repeated loss of power.
  • Some owners say the transmission disengaged while the engine kept running, forcing them to coast to the shoulder before it would re-engage.
  • A few reports describe the vehicle stalling at slow speeds, such as turning in a parking garage or waiting at a stoplight, then restarting on its own.
