maxima driving funny

Maxima drives as if I have the e brake engaged, and after about an hour it Will almost die on acceleration. Anyone experienced this?

your rear calipers are seized up most likely because your e-brake cable got stuck and didn't release.

No codes, automatic 2003 126000 miles. The calipers are not locked up. That's the best way I can describe it.
