I have a 2006 Saturn ion. The reduced engine power light came on and the car still runs but will not accelerate and only goes 30mph
When my Reduced Engine Power Light came on in my 2004 Envoy it ended up being the entire pedal assembly and the electronics that control it. If I remember correctly it ended up setting me back around $500.00. Hope this helps!!
