Issue - loss of engine power, engine going into a mode that restricts RPM and does not allow the car to accelerate past 40mph (approx). This engine mode is referred to as "Limp-Home-Mode" by some people.
Resolution - Faulty ABS sensors were sending a message to the Engine Management System which caused the system to decrease power delivery (forcing the car into a safe mode due to perceived lack of brakes). Replacement of the ABS sensors resolved this issue.
