Description of the problem	On 8/11/12 was traveling on interstate highway at 65 mph when i noticed i was losing acceleration despite constant pressure on the gas pedal. The vehicle was unresponsive to the gas pedal. Steering and brakes were responsive for about 30 seconds. After that 30 seconds the steering and brakes also became unresponsive. The engine continued to run. I coasted to a stop, put the vehicle in park, and turned the car off. After a minute or two i attempted to restart the vehicle. The vehicle restarted and ran normally. On 8/12/12 i was on the highway when the problem recurred in the same order and timing. Then on 8/30/12 i was again on the highway when the problem recurred, again around 65 mph. I restarted the vehicle, progressed around a mile further, and the problem occurred again. Restarted, and the problem occurred again, around 65 mph, about 30 miles later. At this time i noticed the "wrench" light was on as i coasted to a stop. I restarted, turned around toward home, and the problem recurred again. At this time i saw the "wrench" light and the powertrain warning light were both on. I turned the vehicle off, restarted, and was able to drive 70 miles home without any additional occurrences. As of today the problem has occurred six times. I made an appointment with my local dealership this morning for 8/14/12.
