P16F3 Code Control Module Redundant Memory Performance
Backed out of the driveway this morning and received a reduced power message. The car would barely move under its own power. A quick restart and the SES light was still on but the power was back. Drove 6 freeway miles to work.
Read the code once I got to work and then tried to clear. I couldn't get the code to clear.
Resigned myself to making a trip to the dealer, however after the return trip home and two more engine starts (a total of 4 since the code set) and the light has gone out.
More research to follow.......

I have a 2016 and I had this exact same thing happen to me on Monday morning. I took it to the dealer last night with us both agreeing that based on online research it was probably just a software issue. I just received a call telling me that it is due to a fuel sensor fault that they have to remove the blower to replace!
It is only just back from the dealer a week ago for the P050D code that resulted in an injector replacement.
The car has been perfect up to this point, so I guess it's just a bit of bad luck coming back to back.
