Vehicle Speed Control problem #1

I was driving at normal speeds when all of a sudden I lost power to the tranny, I took the truck to a diagnostic center and found nothing wrong with the motor, my engine light went on as well but I cant accelerate more than 35 miles an hour it accelerates slowly gaining speed.

Vehicle Speed Control problem #2

Vehicle will suddenly decrease power and the message "engine power reduced" shows on message display. First time was 9/8/2012. Last time was Feb 24, 2015. Has done this at 25 mph on a city street, 35 mph city street twice, and 55 mph on highway. Supposedly repaired three times. Am afraid to use vehicle as usually tow 5th wheel and do not want it to do this while towing.
