On cruise control, doing 60mph car violently died by computer shut down violently- as if car was put into reverse. Coasted to stop. Engine light on with on screen warning to have engine serviced. Engine was dead. Turned key off, waited a few seconds and attempted to re-start engine. Re-start successful and drove home- approximately ten miles. Will schedule appointment this coming week and will follow up.
Update from May 19, 2017: Had the vehicle into the dealership and they pulled a hard Diagnostic code P2111. Throttle body replaced. We will see what happens
