Engine & cooling

CVT Transmission stops accelerating at some point after driving. RPMs don't increase and vehicle struggles to maintain speed. Speed only increases or decreases due to incline or decline of the road. It's dangerous as it mostly occurs on freeways/highways. Problem has been happening for 2+ years. Dealer cannot confirm as no check engine light code is created and problem ceases to exist only after engine is turned off. Vehicle is available to be inspected.

It's currently in my garage, it has stopped me three times on the road, and twice, in my garage couldn't start
