I had the same thing happen recently. Doing 80ish on the 101 and the message came up. I took it to the dealer and they kept it for the weekend. They called Monday and could not find a problem. I have had no issues since. Very frustrating!

did it react to the throttle. I think this is a bad pedal position signal (gas pedal)

If, as the two above say, it is a throttle position sensor there are two on the gas pedal assembly. Generally, it is easiest and best to replace the entire gas pedal w. both sensors. (since if one goes, the other may not be far behind) At a dealer it costs about 250 w. labor. It does cause the symptoms you reported.

It's been a few days since we've heard from you, SBMVP16. Do you have a game plan to get this checked out at all or have you already gotten this resolved?
