! Engine Power is Reduced" twice it has happen to my car
First time was at work, now again it happened. I already took it to the dealer and they said they had to change the fuel sensor. Now again it occurred and my Camaro rumbles out of place. It's a 2012 it shouldn't have that problem and I havnt done any mods to it lately.
The only thing was change my HiDs fr 12k to 6k because of the cops. Anyone has any idea of what is going on? Thank you ahead of time.

If you have a CAI and its gets wet, the MAF will throw that code when water gets on it. Just a thought. Possibly a MAF going bad too.

hmm well it hasnt rained here in SWFL in the past week, just a chill weather
on my way home my car had trouble accelerating. It goes to 4rpm just to get to 20 mph and I lightly press on the gas. I sure dont drive my car violently. I take good care of it and I'm not those that rev the car and speed or accelerate quickly before. I'm jus clueless

take it back to the dealership. it varies from state to state, but I believe if they can't fix a problem in three tries you can go for full refund or replacement under your states lemon laws.

Its not that easy, there is usage fees and other stuff. Why replace it, probably a simple fix.

I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with Gm Customer Service monitoring this site. They seem to follow us pretty closely.

Rchrdp, I take it you don't have a code scanner? If you can get an auto parts store to pull codes and post them, I'm sure we could give you better advice.
Here's the easiest one: Make sure your gas cap is tight, past the 'click.' I know, I know, that's too easy. Check it anyway. John B.
