Typo, THAT one wasn't Limp-Mode, it was an uncommanded full engine shutdown, nothing short of *criminal* I put it in the same drawer as brain-stem drivers doing brake-checks on the highway and who for that should all be sitting in jail, just like auto designers. Where do they get the nerve to make administrative decisions anyway, it's up to ME if I want and engine shutdown EVEN when the time is right, not to mention when it woud be suicide to do so. Nor is it just Totoyatahaha that does this, most manufacturers do it and those that do should be collectively sued.
