im SOL new car dead...

so yea like the title explains my car is broken down.....basically my idle was messed up took it to a shop and they said it was drivable dont worry about it, 2 days later just pullin onto the freakin freeway and was blinded by the coolant spraying at me, pull over to find the hose to the reservoir popped off so i put it back on add coolant and let it run for a bit, i get back onto the freeway get 50 feet down it and my temp gauge was heating up too quick pull over again, pop the hood, 1 of my belts snapped and my fan belt popped off....now my question is, could a loose belt or even a tight belt, affect the idle problem i was having? im just trying to break down why it happened and what could have caused it. oh yea by the way~! Its my happy ****** birthday thanks guys. oh yea and the fc that drove by me yesterday honkin! thanks for noticing,....(you should have helped a brother out~!)

Happy Bday!

No ideas on the idle thing though... doesn't seem to my inexperience like that'd be related...
