reduced power mode!

2016 ss. My car just went into reduced power mode on the highway. I have a solar performance 95mm throttle body installed and a K&N Black Hawk intake installed. I'm Thinking it just needs to be tuned. but I took them both off to see if they are the issue. I will head to the dealer if it happens again. Any input?

Did it happen when you floored it on the highway? Did it say in the dash screen what caused it? My clutch will slip sometimes when I floor it and it goes into limp mode. It says in the dash "clutch slipping" "reduce power" and goes into limp mode for 10 seconds.

My 2010 did that. It was diagnosed as clogged fuel injectors. Scary as hell on the highway!!!

it happened on the highway. I was playing with the accelerator reving the motor. I was about to launch and it shut down. It also happened on a side street when I was leaving home and I limped back to my house about a block away. We ran the code, throttle position sensor.

There is a service bulletin for this. Mainly a problem in 2016's. Reluctor wheel not torqued adequately:
