Very random issue happened today. Weather outside today was a beautiful 70 degrees. It started at 100 percent then two seconds later went to 64. I turned off and back on still same issue and limited the amount of power I had in acceleration. Called the dealer and was able to get an appointment for Monday to drop off. They said they are busy but I could leave it. I will be out of town for work so it’s fine. Has anyone had this issue?? I checked through and couldn’t find anything like this. Again no dash lights no other warnings, nothing at all just this on the accelerator side.

How long did you leave the truck off for? Go to the power distribution page and see if the front motors are receiving power.

There are several recent report of this happening, sometimes it's out of the blue and resolves in a few minutes being shut off.

The first time I left it off for ten minutes and it reset and worked just fine then later in the day I went to leave it was like this again. I got to my destination turned off for like 5 minutes and still this way. Obviously will let it sit overnight tonight and charge up and see how it is in the morning. I have 8200 miles on my truck and this has just never happened before and wasn’t sure if it was a sign of something else about to break

Probably one of the more common issues that pops up.

Generally it goes away on its own with a key cycle, and most don't have a repeate problem. That said, after the recent windows OTA it seems that quite a few are having this complaint and that it may be happening a few times.

I would recomend disconnecting the 12v battery for 20 minutes. The old "turn it off and back on" fix could help with communications issues on the trucks network.
