Hello,

Most of the time you can simply turn the engine off then wait for a minute and start it back up. The car will come off of the limp mode if the issue does not exists. Sometimes you will have to disconnect the battery for a minute to get it reset.
Here are some helpful tips for a vehicle in limp mode:
