      2009 Aveo5 Lt, overheat on highway

      Help: I forgot to check the coolant before go to work, drove 28 miles and the temp needle went up to the red... I was at the highway, so I drove to the next exit and them the power steering stiffed, battery-brakes-oil maintenance lights went off. I stopped (was hard to drive) put a little coolant I had, wait 20 min... turn on and the lights were there and the stiffed wheel too. I stopped at Autozone, got coolant, wait for 1 hour... nothing better. Towed the car home. Tried today in the morning, the wheel still stiffed. I can’t figure it out what’s going on... dies anyone here has any clue?

      It sounds like your serpentine belt broke or the tensioner is not keeping proper belt tension. Therefore, the power steering pump, water pump, alternator are not turning.
