I WAS DRIVING DOWN AN INTERSTATE WHEN MY POWER STEERING AND AC WENT OUT AND A BATTERY WARNING MESSAGE APPEARED. SHORTLY AFTER, ANOTHER WARNING APPEARED SAYING TO TURN OFF ENGINE. I HAD TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE AND ENDED UP HAVING TO BE TOWED. THEY DETERMINED I NEEDED A NEW COMPRESSOR, NEW PULLEYS, AND A NEW BELT. AFTER IT WAS "FIXED" THE AC STILL WOULDN'T TURN ON AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS A FRONT SAM CONSOLE ISSUE. I GOT THE SAM REPLACED AND THEN AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 30 MILES, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING. MA 10/22/2015 UPDATED 11/27/2017*CN
