Driving on the highway to school the vehicle began to slow down and come to a stop even as I stepped on the accelerator. I parked on the side of the road and restarted and the same thing happened so I had my insurance company tow it. After researching I found that the manufacturer issued recalls for the vehicle but when I contacted them they said there were no found defects/recalls that caused these issues for my specific vehicle.
