11 Sonata 2.4l multiple codes about Throttle position sensor
 
Recently purchased a 11 Sonata with 120k miles now check engine and traction light appears won't let me drive over 20mph I check it has multiple codes so I replaced the throttle body reset lights 2 weeks later same thing. Any Help? Codes: p0021 p0143 p1821 p2135 p2106 p0221 p2118 p2118

You have multiple codes. Most likely caused by one thing. I quickly looked up this:

What causes the P2118 code?

These are the most common causes of the P2118 code:
  • Throttle actuator control motor failure
  • Failed pedal position sensor
  • Throttle position sensor faulty
  • Open or short in the actuator circuit
  • Poor electrical connection
I would be looking for a poor electrical connection, probably a ground connection. Check the grounding strap(s) between engine and body and anything else you can get your hands on.

It sounds like the engine is going into "limp mode", to protect you , your vehicle and others.
I believe allegretto gave you good advice and agree with the suggestions he offered.
