Been having problems with the temperature gauge reading hot all the time, but car is not overheating, was told it sounds electrical. Then the turning signal started to make the clicling noise even though you have already completed your turn, no visable lights flashing just the clicking noise then driving along with windows rolled up and AC on eye's started burning and saw smoke coming from steering wheel turning signal I was told shorted out why??? Hallmans states they have never heard of a geo ever, ever having a electrical problem did not purchase from hallmans but they are a geo dealer and that is where I was told to go for service thank you for this wonderful website feel like this should have not happened.
