    i had this problem for a while( my personal vehicle). The truck would go into reduce engine power mode at first. Turn the engine off and restarts with no prblem. I ignored it just didn't use defrost or A/C. Than as time went on(months)it got cold here in Philly and i needed my defrost.This time the truck shut off. turned off defrost and it started right up and ran normal. i looked for vacuum leaks. not many hoses to check. finally found advice via youtube to remove throttle body and clean it. I used Brakekleen and cleaned throttle plate very dirty. reinstalled and checked. Problem Fixed!!!! Quick!Easy!and Cheap! Thanks Youtube
