Car was parked for about 10 minutes after running without issue for 20 minutes. When starting again from the parked position, car lost all power steering. Within the 2. 1 mile/6 minute ride that followed, the power steering never returned. Checking under the hood revealed serpentine belt failed in a clean break. The car was not driven prior to replacing the belt the next day. Once the belt was installed, a quick run through the system functions included running the a/c. All systems seem functional until the a/c is activated. Within 3 seconds of starting a/c, observed audible motor sound followed by all power failed (full shut-down). Turned off engine, removed key, waited 60 seconds, all was good until again turning on the a/c, when symptom of system failure (audible motor sound change) occurred again, a/c was turned off right away, and engine and all other systems operated as expected.
