Might be a leak on your brake booster (this will most probable give you a hard brake pedal or a "sucking sound " when applying brakes) also check the vacumm pipe from the engine to the brake booster. It might have a leak, so when you press the brakes it influences the air mixture.

Check the heat shield is still attached to the chassis. It could have fallen off over bumpy roads.

Check fluid level and scan trans module

Check fuses 52 15A and 51 15A in the underhood fuse box. Check the Blower motor relay behind the right side of dash. Check the fan control amplifier (controls fan speed) behind right side of dash. Sound more like a blown fuse or bad blower motor relay

Sometimes a build up of carbon/varnish just inside the throttle body plate will cause this to happen. Clean it with throttle body aerosol cleaner. Also check the wiring contacts in the plug at the mass air flow sensor for corrosion. It can be cleaned with electrical terminal aerosol cleaner. Good luck.

Check the radiator fluid level.
Sounds like the water pump or alternator or power steering pump has seazed causing the fan belt not to drive the rest of the necessaryattaychments also causing engine to overheat.
