I have seen the engine coolant temperature sensor short out and cause this issue. I have also seen a fuel injector short out when hot and doing the same thing, so we should run the codes to see if anything comes up to help point us in the right direction.

Please go over this guide and get back to us. Here is the location of the coolant sensor in case you need it.

Check out the images (below). Please let us know how it goes
