Unhappy Engine power reduced

The other day I was driving my 09 hhr ss and I just suddenly lost engine power. Also, on my dash a message saying "engine power reduced" appeared with a "check ECM" message. Have any of ya'll encountered this before ? if so i would love some advice please.

Sure that wasn't "ESC not ready" or "Service ESC" or something with ESC not ECM?
Anyway there should be some OBD code and probably a CEL.

X2 what Donbrew said. There is no "check ECM" in the list of warnings.

Have the codes pulled.
