Problem#1

While driving home from work my 2003 Chev Impala LS (140,000 miles) suddenly became hard to steer. Once I finally got pulled over and popped the hood there was a belt on the left hand side that had snapped. There was a liquid leaking out of the car as well. What is the belt and the liquid?

Problem #2

My car shakes terribly bad until you reach 75 miles per hour. Why does it shake like that. It's fine when you are going minimal speeds.


Problem #3

My driver's side window will not roll down. I have power windows and locks but it won't work. All of the other windows work perfectly fine.


Problem #4

My check engine light keeps going on and off. And it doesn't stay completely on all of the time.


What is the problem with this car???? Help

Gotcher hands full huh?

What color is the liquid? Sound like the water pump seized up and the belt snapped cause of it. The belt is a sepentine belt that handles most all of the accessories.

Tire balance problem on # 2

might need a window regulator on #3

Need codes puled to talk about #4.
