Last Monday I had my car in "drive" to drive to work, all of a sudden, my CD player stopped working, the mirror on the right I was putting up stopped, and my windows would not roll up or down. I was confused so I turned off my car, and I put it in park. When I turned my car back on it still was running, but the gear shift would not go back into gear. A message popped up that said "Service Vehicle PWR STR" I have been told to check the fuses, almost all of them have been replaced and still nothing will work.

So you checked all the fuses inside the car and under the hood? If so how did you check them? Under the hood in the fuse box there are square fuses with a clear top look through the clear top to see if any of those are blown? One of those feeds power to your electric steering motor. Also, have you made sure your battery cables are clean and tight at the battery? Have you tested your battery yet?

It ended up being a fuse in the interior fuse box that controls all the electrical functions
