Some wires inside the signal switch were melting a plastic piece inside steering wheel. It began to smoke and the lights are not working properly.
The transmission feels like it is slipping it will not shift gears and will not go above 20mph without the car bucking and kicking like it is fixing to shut off. It only does this when the car is not hot. Changed the range sensor and that was the problem.
The sensor gets damaged, enabling the car to activate reverse and accelerates when placed on drive making hard pumping motor noise.
