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.
