My rav4 just had kinda similar problem. It lost power and wouldn't get over 20 mph so I changed the coil packs and spark plugs. It helped a little bit for a few minutes but then went back to the same only going 20 mph. I noticed that it when I pressed the accelerator that it done differently. Well it ended up being my catylic convertor stopped up. It was the first cat, mine has two and my problem is fixed. Might not be what's wrong with yours but wouldn't hurt to look into it

If the catalytic converter is truly stopped up, you will see the engine temperature go up on the gauge.

Herdj, you have four lights lit: engine check, TRAC OFF, 4WD and another green bulb light. Unless you have a code reader and know how to fix cars I recommend you take your car to a mechanic. These types of problem can get complicated and difficult to diagnose. Another thing is that your car is not safe to drive and should be fixed asap.
