Acceleration maxed at 50mph, car "shaking"

Asked by Jade Apr 13, 2015 at 01:37 PM about the 2005 Saturn VUE Base

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2005 Saturn Vue FWD. Recently replaced engine (used not new) back in early
March, and just this week had to replace the alternator. Today Im driving on the Hwy and
cannot accelerate above 50mph, car started shaking-pulled off hwy and took backroads
home at 45mph. Not loving this car right now.
