2 Throttle Control Warning Light On problem

Failure Date: 12/27/2015

I have experienced my car suddenly decreasing speed to around 30 mph after the throttle body light comes on. The second time I was on the freeway, the other times were on the street. Once I turn off my car and restart it is fine, unfortunately this is occurring more frequently. I bought my car new, it is only 3 years old, this should not be happening. It only has 56,000 miles and gets serviced on a regular basis. It does not matter what time of day, if the heater is on or off, it just happens.
