On 21 oct 2020, was driving on the highway at steady speed using cruise control on level ground. Engine suddenly lost power. Limped off highway, unable to exceed 20 mph. Erratic idle. Cel, check emissions and check vsa displayed on driver's information display. Occurred at 147523. Dealer recommended replacement of timing chain, tensioner and guides, all spark plugs, and new pistons and rings as a result of observing oil on spark plugs. Last oil change occurred at 140940 miles. I declined repairs as cost exceeded remaining value of car.
