My brother who has been a certified mechanic for thirty yeas diagnosed the car and it said throttle body valve stuck open.I did not get hurt but if I had been on a highway or in faster traffic I could have.

During operation vehicle lost ability to accelerate, all other functions still existed. Yellow service ranch appeared on dash had to pull over and put car in park, I don't was very rough turn engine off. After starting car back up all lights were gone, able to drive again. This has now occurred more than 20 times. We have replaced both oxygen sensors,the purge canister and the catalytic converter. Still having the same issue. When this happens on large highways or a multilane interstate it becomes a very dangerous situation.
