It was running fine and then all of a sudden the engine bogged down and traction control and stabilitrak lights came on. now it barely has enough power to pull its self. I put a new MAF sensor on it and clean the throttle body.

Good morning,

Is the check engine light on? If it is, do you know the code?

Have you checked the fuel pressure? Low fuel pressure can cause this.

Do you know the code for the ABS system?

Okay, clearing does nothing as the issue is still present and needs to be addressed.

I would start by checking the fuel pressure as I stated. Low fuel pressure will set this code due to not enough fuel to the rail.
