I have a 2003 Santa Fe. As I was driving it just today, the battery and break lights came on, on the dashboard. Just as this happened I lost my Air conditioning and Power Steering.

I was able to limp home ok. I'm guessing I may have broke a drive belt.

Has this happened to anyone else before ?

Thanks.

It sounds that way, but no need to guess, just open the hood and look.

Yes, it has probably happened to millions of people. Do you know how to
open the hood? If yes, do so and see if the serpentine belt is missing. If
it is, put one on before you drive it. That limping home may also have
overheated the engine and done some severe damage.

Let's see... these problems occurred, you suspected a drive belt, but you
didn't open the hood to simply check?
