I have scanned with Autel scanner and it doesn’t find anything

!!! This will make the diagnosis much more difficult.
I suspect something common to both problems. Yet it has to be unmonitored by a sensor. Maybe the front SAM or the pre-fuse block or intermittent connection to or from either.
Do you have a wiring diagram? I can’t get to sny of my manuals or WIS right now.

Which Autel scanner? Autel makes a bunch of stuff from really cheap generic OBD scanners to very expensive multi-vehicle scanners.

Anytime something like this comes up, I first ask how old the batteries are.

I have the same car, got the same message today. Stopped, turned off car and restarted, seemed to drive fine for the next 4 hours on the highway. Gas pedal felt like it wasn't giving me full power when I was putting it down. What was the outcome for you?
