Description of the problem | While driving up an incline on hot day with ac on i got message no charge, and "engine hot shutdown soon", & ac compressor off! (a no brainer with belt shredded!!) as well as steering going numb. When i looked under the hood the serpentine belt had slipped off the pulleys & shredded. Upon closer inspection it was determined that the power steering pump "adapter" has a leak that drips oil directly onto the belt & pulleys which are smooth with nothing to stop belt from sliding off should a leak occurs. I have been unable to find "power steering pump adapter" in salvage yard & its out of production at gm & not in stock at my local dealer. |
