The vehicle was on the freeway doing 70mph and the engine suddenly began knocking and could not sustain highway speeds. Had to stop by the side and then slowly take the next exit. On taking it to the dealer, they mentioned the IGN coils % spark plugs were faulty and I had to pay to have them replaced with a new part number!. Vehicle had only 55K miles on it and had routine maintenance performed on it.
