Two years ago we were towing my fifth to Gulf State Park in Alabama. 60 mi. outside of Mobile, the Eco went into "limp" mode. Took a mile or more to get up to 30 from a stop sign. And there were several on that route....of course, the speed limit had a lot of 65 stretches. Lots of PO'd drivers behind me.
Drove to the local dealer the next day, and it accelerated like my old Plymouth Reliant. Meaning it would get up to 65 (without the trailer) but it took a really long time.... The good news is my MPG registered almost 40!
Cracked electrical connector had knocked out the turbos, got it fixed, and it was back to its old self.
