Welcome to the forum. Do you have more details on what the dealer found? Any fault codes?
Did the red throttle body (ETC) warning light or the yellow 'ck eng' light come on?

Morning. There were no codes so far waiting for deale to get back to me. Yes I had the red light come on and power shut down at high speeds. RED light only it shut car down locked brakes and steering almost hit a car. Second time it happens showed red throttle body light. But for a second car both times turned on within 25-45 mins very scary. They think it’s throttle body. When I hit the acceleration down harder. Is when I seem to lose the power

I will be having him run tested later as I had my kids in car on highway the first time and it scared us all luckily I calmly maneuver us over to the shoulder.

Does it do it a idle also? How many miles on it? I had similar issue where it would randomly stall. Change crankcase position sensor an a few other things, turned out to be a bad fuel pump causing the autoshutdown relay to engage and kill the power to the car. I never got codes either, but since changing out the fuel pump it's been fine.
