Hello,

Overheating can lead to engine power loss.
Can you tell us little more details of what you have been experiencing?

An engine can overheat due to a number of reasons. It could be for lack of coolant, stuck closed thermostat, bad water pump, faulty radiator, inoperative cooling fan.

Take a look at this helpful guide:

Also are you getting any error lights? Is the check engine light on?
If so scanning to get the code(s) can help.

Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
