Maybe the same thing is happening to you?
Might be onto something there. (AC was off for me)

I was just stuck in traffic a good 30min. Once I got up to my red light, RPM's started to be a bit fishy, 500 or so teetering on the feeling it was going to stall.

This is a 2013, 6 months old. Never had it in traffic yet this long, bout low 80's for ambient temps.

No hesitation once the light turned green, got it to the driveway, seems to be fine.

Will see whats good tomorrow on the way to work.

Also considered maybe low fuel, but still have 4 dots, no warning lights. I usually fill her up at 3 dots, so tomorrow is the day anyways.

Approx 4,500 miles on the ticker, I wouldn't think there should be any issues this early!

i think its just heatsoak, cause when i was experiencing this, i had well over half a tank of gas, and san diego traffic is never as bad as LA traffic and it was one of the first times i was stuck in legit no one is moving traffic for a couple hours

iirc it was 85 out that day
