I started my car and it started very fine but I saw the battery light and brake warning light both turned on. I started driving and after 15 minutes my car stopped accelerating and I was driving like around 20km/hr ! after minutes driving started more slowing down and suddenly stopped working and never turned on again (no start/no crank). I could park my car with much difficulty by hand at mid night.

What would be the problem?
I have Nissan altima 2004, 2.5S
Thanks

it sounds like the alternator has failed and your battery went dead. low voltage will cause all the issues

this guide will help confirm the failure
