Default Starting problem

Car starts but engine shuts off either after 15 seconds, or immediately if the gas pedal is applied. And once car shuts off, it will not restart for several hours. Initial problem was that the engine shut off while driving; was able to safely pull off to the side, but then car would not restart. Currently, when key is in the ignition in the on position, the "check engine" and "power steering malfunction" light remain on. The "security indicator light" remains off. When key turned to start and engine is running, only the "check engine" remain on.

The following codes were pulled:
P0101 - MASS airflow sensor (was pulled and sprayed with electronic cleaner, no change)
P1260 - Immobilizer system
U0442 - Power Steering Pressure

2012 Mazda 3i Skyactive w/ 170K miles

Thanks in advance.
