I ran the codes and I had a random misfire code, crankshaft/camshaft positioning sensor code. I have replace the sensors, spark plugs and coil packs a month ago when this first started, it ran great until three days ago. All the codes are back and it runs so rough and has so little power I cannot even get it to the shop. Any and all help would be great.

If it is a code p0016 then it is cam/crank correlation which only a mechanic with a scanner can fix, but it may be something else like a belt jumped a tooth. the random misfire may be due to that as well as that is an interference engine so if belt jumped you bent a valve. but check fuel pressure with a gauge first it may be low fuel pressure. But certainly have a a mechanic look at this. See link.
