My 2001 Isuzu Rodeo that I have had for 9 years has never really given me any problems until this year. This exact incident has occurred on three different occasions now. I will be driving, the speed does not matter, sometimes it is 30, 50, or 80 mph, and the car will just start losing power. First the dash and all my gauges will go out, then the motor will start to sound funny and start losing power. Then as I make it to the side (thankfully every time) it just stops running and everything shuts off. I try to re-crank it and it won't turn over. I will turn my flashers on and even then they run at an extremely reduced rate and sometimes not at all. I have replaced my battery, the wiring to my alternator, my alternator, and my egr valve. I don't know what else to fix and I need the problem diagnosed so I'm not spending money fixing things I don't need and spend money on the actual issue getting fixed.

When braking on occasion vehicle will die, also on separate occasions the vehicle reduce power and check engine light will come on. The vehicle. Also, idle surges. The consequences could result in being hit from behind when sudden stopping. Also, the reduce power results in not going over 20 mph at maximum with pedal on hill which could result in an accident since in this mode vehicle cannot climb hills and on highway could be dangerous since sudden speed drop. On two occasions have had vehicle checked. Result showed throttle postion sensor on diagnostic test changed both sensors one twice with no postive results.
