Uhhh Ohhh Not a Good Sign

Well my car has been acting kinda funny lately

1. Lots of brake dust on the rims
2. When I apply the brakes the car shimmies constantly (think maybe the rotor is cut wrong).
3. One of the fans is running constantly (not the compressor fan but the other one), starts when I turn on the car and runs for about five minutes when I turn the car off.
4. A couple of times car turned off right after I turned it on (I live in Miami, FL so it doesnt have to do with cold weather).
5. Recently when I accelerate car jerks really hard (like maybe its not shifting right, or timing is off not sure).
6. And the greatest and most recent thing the check engine light just came on.

Called the dealer today and I'm bringing the car in tommorrow to get it checked out, because something is definately not right. Only problem they say they have to keep it for 24 hours and see that it is not driveable before they can give me a loaner. So I have to be without a car for 24 hours so they can see something is wrong, well I know something is wrong, what kinda crap is that!!!!!!

Sorry this is sooo long just not in a good mood, anyone else have any other problems, or even similiar problems.... My car is a 6S auto.......

Your rotors are warped, and you probably have a bad coolant temp sensor. When they go bad, the ECU goes into limp mode and runs the coolant fan based on a computation that assumes so much of a temp increase per minute of the engine running. It will also run after the car is shut off.
