Our 2005 Chevy Colorado started to die on us while driving. It would read REDUCED POWER and shut off completely no mater what speed we were going. You can wait 5 to 10 minutes and it would start up again only to die within a matter of minutes. We bought new batteries, no change. Read a lot of forums with the same problem. Most said we needed to replace or repair the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). I found a place in New York where you can remove PCM, extremely easy, and mail it to them and they repair it and send it back with a 5 year warranty. Car doesn't need to relearn PCM as it is the original and should be able to plug it in and go. I haven't received it back yet but will be sure to let you know the outcome. Wish me luck because we have been dealing with this a long time and are at our wits end.
