Default I need help maybe waterpump

I noticed the other day one of my pulleys was rattling, so today I was driving and my car said service engine soon 2 miles down the road it went into battery saver mode ac turned off and so did traction control, now shortly after I noticed that the battery was dying. I pulled into my neighborhood and the power steering went out and ABS. I took off the belt to find my water pump pulley was rattling or loose. Ok so that’s what happened step by step. What could be the problem??? could the water pump be the reason all this happend?

Sounds liek the wobbling may have wiped out your alternator, and/or caused the knock sensors to throw the car into limp mode, I read your other thread and it said your SES light came on correct.

could've caused excessive belt slip... low voltage from the alternator
