Even if the check engine light went off again, have it scanned for codes and see what's going on. Keep in mind that vehicle, like so many, is due for a timing belt replacement. It might have jumped a cog and set off the CEL. If you notice is runs terrible now and lost power, that would mean the belt may be failing soon causing engine damage. That's IF it's the belt. The belt can be inspected before disassembly.
