Driving home from work in my 2015 show lost power and would not start back up. Taking it to the dealership so far I see a check engine light has come on, tried restarting and the car sputtered and I don’t very roughly for maybe 20 to 30 seconds before cutting off. I’m hoping it’s something as simple as the battery, but it doesn’t sound like it’s getting any air or fuel. Car has around 48,000 miles on it

Since air is the easier thing to supply, I'd say fuel or spark....and judging from the sputtering for 20-30 seconds and shutting down, I'd guess fuel.

Fuel injector would be my first guess as well. Unless the battery is literally dead. A throttle body issue could have been a possibility, but usually it is a "soft" error and resets on restart.

There is a TSB on fuel pump for some 2015 SHOs. Could be that.

Had the same problem and it was the battery. The pos post was so corroded that the bat wasn't getting charged right. The red cover on the pos post covers it and ifI had seen the corrosion I would of taken care of that problem.

Same thing happened to mine '15 with 150 miles on it. (yes 150!) seems something got sucked into the #6 cylinder. New long block.

I checked my positive terminal and it is clean as a whistle. 2015 with 13600 miles.

Sounds like a major manufacturing defect. My 2015 has been perfect but only have 13600 on her.
