Loss of power driving down the highway. Went from going 60 MPH to 20 MPH. Dealerahip service could not find anything wrong with it. They cleared code and stated vehicle seemed to be running fine. I was driving on a rural highway 299 in trinity county california where there was no cell service and was left stranded. I drove on the shoulder the rest of the 30 miles to get to dealership.
