While driving at 60 MPH the vehicle lost rpms and the ability to accelerate. I pulled over safely to the side of the road and called hyundai roadside assistance. Roadside assistance could not validate my location. I attempted to drive to the next town but rpms stayed from 1000-2000 and I was unable to go over 25 MPH.
