2009 Kia Sorento While driving car slips to lower speed and it won't allow me to excel even when my foot is on the gas
While driving car slips to lower speed and it won't allow me to excel even when my foot is on the gas
What is your question?
First, my battery died. Once I jumped it and got it going again, my car was running fine for about 20 minutes. Then all the sudden when I was going about 30, my car slowed down on its own (no matter how hard I pushed the gas peddle) and it would not excel past like 5 miles per hour. Almost all my lights on my dash started to come on. It sounded and felt like it was trying to "kick" back into gear but couldn't. It finally slowed down until it stopped. However previously, I could be going 50 miles per hour and it would slow down BY ITSELF to a lower speed and wouldn't excel even if I pushed the gas peddle. It didn't quit because it would eventually "kick" back into gear.

Hello, it is difficult to tell what kind of concern you are having without inspecting the vehicle.
If there is a loss of vehicle electrical power, as with the charging system and battery not being sufficient to operate the vehicle, you could lose power, have warning lights come on, and come to a stop.
If you have an engine performance issue, your acceleration could fail, resulting in warning lights and the vehicle stopping also.
Hands on testing is required to see which way to go and what components to be checking out.
