Car will not accelerate properly

I have n 2001 Mitsubishi eclipse. It starts fine but when I press on the accelerator, the car accels very slow. Upon acceleration, the car will only accelerate to about 30 mph for about the first minute. After the car will slowly accelerate. I am having this issue every time that I stop at a red light and such. What could be my issue?

1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse whining noise from the rear when accelerating

A whining noise during acceleration usually, is from the gear set, indicating the pinion is too close to the ring gear.
I believe the eclipse is a FWD car though. Could it be the transmission you are hearing?

Sounds Like the Strut needs replaced. Cost $116 to $200 each. The only other thing that would squeak would be the rubber coil spring insulator (might have moved).
