Hello,
One of the most common causes for low power mode or limp mode in a vehicle is having a dirty throttle actuator.
Built up dirt and debris inside the throttle actuator can make the sensor not send correct data to the ECM, which can lead to low power output.
Cleaning out the throttle actuator can improve this.
It can also be due to a faulty mass air flow sensor.
Take a look at these articles:

Go through the list and let me know what you find or if you have any questions.
Thank you.
