car not accelerating well

i have a problem. when accelerating through 1st and 2nd i have no problems getting to 60mph, but when im in 3rd gear and i reach 60 the car hesitates before it starts to move. even if i push the throttle open more it still wont move. i do not know why it does this, and its an auto. can anyone try to diagnose this problem. can it be my coil packs?????

I dont think its your coil packs. If your car is accelerating normal in the first 2 gears I can't see it being a coil pack problem. I would check your plugs out though and make sure.
