When I drive my car on the road, I get up to 55 miles n hour and it bogs down to no power until I let up on the gas, then I can drive again. But when it reaches 55 it will do the same thing?

I am not sure what you mean? Were is that located? My car drives fine and there are no faulty dash lights on. It also has brand new exhaust system including the cadilack converter. I was told it was the speed sensor? Can you tell me were it is located on the car?

I also wanted to state that when I said I am going 55 miles n hour that was clocked because I had a friend drive beside me. The actually speed that reads on my car is 120 but actually 55 miles n hour. Its reading way more then it should be. Maybe this will help with my question as to what is wrong?
