Default weird acceleration issue

Randomly lost ALL acceleration and battery light came on. had power as far as lights and everything. just had no gas at all. started and drove later no problem. sat for almost a full day after and its been a few days and haven't had the same issue since, battery is running at like 15 volts. codes that have been on the car are cataylist below threshold p0420 and P0032 oxygen sensor getting low connection or none. any ideas???

My guess is that one of your O2 sensor is failing and it couldn't get a good read, so it killed the engine "to be safe".

Check for codes everyday and see if one of the O2 sensors keeps throwing the same code. If so, replace it.

Probably need to replace the o2 sensor.
Otherwise consider checking the crank sensor
