The reason the system goes into limp mode is to prevent further damage to certain parts of the vehicle.

The object now is to determine what happened to cause that and a capable scan tool is a must as well as the necessary info to see what is wrong.

A special function of some scan tools will provide the data at the time the problem appeared (Freeze Frame) and then the systems can be further checked to determine just what went wrong.
I have a problem with the dealership not being able to find the problem and the cause, but they won't do it for free.
Sometimes it can be something simple and other times it can get really involved to chase the cause down.
