The engine stalls with negligible acceleration when applying gas. I was driving on the freeway at approx 60 when all of sudden the car stop moving even though I was applying gas. The check engine and trac lights turn on. I would appreciate any input from any one that may be familiar with this problem.. Thanks

Check engine light On-

Your starting point here is get the computer scanned for OBD2 code/s there's a problem within the engine management system this is where the diagnosis starts
