Hello,

I own a 2015 SHO with 62k miles. Recently, I’ve noticed drastically reduced acceleration when applying full throttle. It is most noticeable at highway speeds above 60 mph. It happens during about 80% of driving sessions, but if it happens it will happen the whole time I’m driving. Also, I’ve noticed that one of the tires will squeal for a brief second when accelerating and when I reach about 60 mph. Wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue?

Thanks.

Either power is being cut due to lost traction, or the wastegate(s) are not holding pressure. Rarely, the throttle body motor has developed a failure issue. If you feel stuttering, it could be knock sensor wiring.

In any case, start by checking the pcm for codes.
