Default 2007 Lexus ls460 problems at 170000 miles

Going down the highway the car started to cut out and the ac went out. The ac came back on but then the battery light was on. The car continued to cut out but then it over heated and I parked the car. I can see antifreeze leaking from underneath. The current issues were a cylinder seven misfire and the mark L. Amp went out about a month ago. Besides the suspension problems that’s all that was wrong with the car. Can someone give me some advice or if they are familiar with the issue tell me what it is and what I should do. Thank u, I’ve had the car two months and it’s at 170000 miles.

Check the serpentine belt and pulleys. The cylinder misfire can be a simple issue or a blown gasket.

Seeing antifreeze indicates a leak. It could be hoses, pump or radiator, not unusual for 170kmiles. Check you oil dipstick, if it's a light color, it may be very serious, blown head gasket from overheating. Have a shop put it on their diagnostic computer for misfires, etc. and to look for the source of antifreeze.
