Reported at 100 miles, January 2015 Fire

I was driving to the freeway about 60 - 70 MPH and the car did not want to speed up, the gas pedal even though pushed pretty hard did not want to respond therefore I had to stop in the middle of the 10 freeway. After turning of the car, and turning of the eco mode (car turning off at intersections or in traffic jams) and continued driving. However, during the eco mode off, the stalls heavily during gear switch, most notably in the beginning ones for speeds up to 35 MPH. I made it safely home.
