My 2003 Saturn VUE 4 cylinder awd started losing power as I was driving - the check engine light and loss of power/reduced power light came on and I couldn't accelerate above 20 mph. Wondering if it's a transmission problem, throttle body, or speed sensor? The engine is 2.2l. The mileage is at 101453.

Sounds like it went into "Limp Mode" have it scanned for codes and check fuel pressure first. It may not have any stored codes, so you will need a scan tool capable of reading "freeze frame/failure records" and "Pending Codes"
See the article below for some info on Check Engine lights
