I WAS DRIVING VEHICLE UP A SLIGHT GRADE AT 30MPH. ENGINE POWER SUDDENLY DROPPED TO AN IDLE RPM. IT FELT LIKE IT WAS RUNNING ON 1 CYLINDER AND VERY ROUGH. I WAS ABLE TO "CREEP" THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF ROAD. PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR IN NEUTRAL OR DRIVE HAD NO EFFECT. A "WRENCH" WARNING ICON APPEARED ON THE INDICATOR PANEL. SHUTTING OFF AND RESTARTING THE CAR ALLOWED US TO DRIVE HOME. THIS OCCURRED TWO TIMES WITHIN 2 MILES. THE CAR WILL BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER TODAY FOR REPAIRS. THIS SAME SCENARIO (LESS THAN 270 MILES PRIOR) OCCURRED AS MY WIFE ACCELERATED AWAY FROM OUR HOME 3 WEEKS PRIOR. THE OWNERS MANUAL INDICATED IT WAS AN AWD ISSUE. MY CAR DOES NOT HAVE THAT FEATURE.THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO INDICATED IT WAS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM COVERED BY A SERVICE BULLETIN AND REPROGRAMMED THE TRANSMISSION COMPUTER. PRIOR TO THESE ENGINE INCIDENTS THE CAR HAD ACTED ODD WHEN SHIFTING, AS THOUGH IT POPPED IN AND OUT OF GEAR. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND SO FAR WE HAVE BEEN LUCKY BECAUSE IT HAPPENED EACH TIME IN LOW TRAFFIC CONDITIONS. *TR
