Hi all,
I am new to the forum, but tonight my protege went crazy on me. I had been hearing a squeaky belt noise underneath my hood. Well tonight as I was driving I guess my powersteering belt popped because I could no longer turn my wheel with ease. Then my battery light came on, after that the check engine light came on and the temperature thermometer gage rose to pass the "H" for hot. My car turned off on me 3times as I was trying to stay calm and get home safely. Thankfully I made it home but I notices a theard like component hanging from the bottom of my car and also I now have leak (I noticed a puddle of liquid forming under my car as well). I can't tell what it is because it's 9pm and very dark outside. I really don't know what to do and/or where to start. Can someone please help guide me. This is my only mode of transportation...now I feel depressed and I just don't have a clue.
