Reported at 28,835 miles, March 2010 Crash

We were driving back home when my husband noticed that the car would not accelerate above 65 MPH. This occurred about halfway home, so about 200 miles into our drive back home (of the 350 mile total). The car was not overheated, nor was it making noise. He would put his foot down all the way on the accelerator, as if he wanted to go full speed and it would not respond. There weren't any warning lights lit up on the console, and it was not overheated.
