While driving along the road the srx suddenly stops accelerating and then starts shaking if I try to accelerate. Once I go below 70 mph all is fine.

If the check engine light has come on, have the computer scanned. Most parts stores will do it for free. Also, since it happens under a load, check fuel pump pressure to make sure it is within spec. If you need directions, check our homepage under the DIY section for a video and directions.
