i was kinda hoping he would turn evil and we could have a horror movie seen where cars start and just try and run people over. thats my dream for that character. horror movie
Yeah, that was Hiro's power. Peter was not asleep or passed out when that happened, and Peter unconsciously triggered the power by wanting to see the future.
I think it's somewhat possible, given the latest News/Spoiler @ E!:
Kensei Is Super Old: [SPOILER - highlight to read]: 400 years old and he looks that good without a smidge of Botox? No fair! And he might even have picked himself up an Anglo name! You'll see very soon, and so will Peter, who gets a new bunkmate.

I think it can logically be concluded that the Haitian removed Peter's memories given that's what he does and the fact that Peter is now wearing his necklace. Now whether it was the Haitian on his own, or [more likely] someone ordering him to do so, there had to be a purpose as to why his memories were taken, and why he was given the necklace. If this theory were to be true, then it can be concluded that whoever put the necklace on Peter wanted him to go through a loss of memory, and then at some point gain them back. But what undermines this theory, is that given that Peter could technically take the necklace off at any time, and that the odds of him not doing so are so slim, there would be no way in controlling for how long Peter would not remember anything about his past, thus this is where the theory fails.
What I think is more likely, is that by wearing the necklace, Peter will slowly be regaining his memories at a steady pace, and that the reason his memories were taken was because he had a special mission to complete that required it. Perhaps slowly gaining his memories back along the way, along with a few hints here and there as to what he is supposed to do, was determined as being the best way for Peter to fulfill a certain quest. That, would be what I think is more likely.
Supporting the possibility that The Haitian's necklace could perhaps enable Peter to regain his memories are the constantly allusions that "The Symbol" is a combination of two Japanese character, together coming to mean "imparting ability." Given that the Haitian is constantly seen wearing it, it's certainly possible that his powers may have in part been imbued with the necklace, so that the memories that the Haitian takes may be stored in the necklace.
Either way, it seems that this "Adam" (very possibly Adam Monroe) is largely involved in this, and I'm guessing that he's also Elle's mysterious father, and mostly a good guy, which would explain his anger at Elle killing that guy.
Personally, I think this scenario would be very possible.
