I would think it would be a stretch for all three problems to be caused by the same thing.
The water pump was replaced this past winter after it failed, but getting to the belt and checking it would not be too difficult.

I lose power and the steering starts vibrating first, after this happens I notice the engine temps start to creep up. I thought it was not getting enough fuel so I replaced the fuel pump but the issue is still there.
