I can be going down the highway running 65-70 mph and the reduced engine power light will come on and reduces my speed to 10 mph! I pull over, disconnect the battery cable and replace it, then I could continue for another week or so. Finally, I left the diagonstic computer in my truck and was able to capture the code p1125. The mechanic said to replace the throttle body. That was done in October. It ran fine for a while, but it started doing it again. The throttle body was replaced again! now, two months later, it's doing it again! no one can seem to fix the problem. Meanwhile, I am a female who travels the highways everyday going back and forth to work and I have been in several dangerous situations due to this problem that will not stop! as of now, I can not drive my truck and having to rely on carpooling again until it's fixed for the third time in the past 6 months. It also appears that several people are having the same problem with no results. Someone is going to get killed if this is not addressed soon!.
Vehicle fuel system quit on hwy at 60 mph. . . I was able to get to shoulder of the hwy due to skillful driving. After cooling down the vehicle started was able to drive 20 miles when it quit again. . . This happened several times. . . Each time I was able to get off the hwy. . . Finally I had to get the Tahoe towed to be repaired. . .
The gas guage reads 1/4 full when out of gas. . . Once on highway and once at home. . . Now I fill up at when guage reads 1/2 full. . .
