Hi there:

If I’m understanding your question correctly, it appears you’re asking why your car won’t accelerate past 70 to 80 (but I’m not sure if you’re talking MPH or KM/H). When this happens, it’s typically a problem with a governor on the vehicle, which is usually something that is fixed or reviewed by a dealership. You might want to contact a local mechanic to complete a full check engine light inspection to determine if any electrical faults are actively stored in the ECU.
