My ice possible warning light comes on
This comes on when the outdoor temperature is near freezing to warn of possible ice on the roadway. If it is not 35 degrees or below, the sensor may be defective.
Can low coolant in car lock up your engine
Low coolant will cause overheating- damage to your engine- depending on how low it actually is. If the coolant is less than four years old you could just add coolant (you can buy premixed at the auto parts store) to the proper level. More than four years old and your coolant should be replaced; and the system flushed in the process. If you are just adding coolant, be sure you are using the proper coolant for your car.
Intermittant screeching noise by rear passenger side
Your description makes me worry. If you have a strange, unknown screeching noise coming from the right rear wheel and now there is a burning smell. Please stop using it and have it looked at as soon as possible. There are a few things that could be the cause of these symptoms. Wheel bearing failure, seized brake caliper or frozen caliper sliders, damaged brake line, seized E-brake cable, or improperly installed brake-pads. In any case, if you continue to drive this car, with these symptoms. You may cause a break-down (requiring a tow), or cause a fire. Let me know if I can answer any other questions or how the repair goes, good luck.
Turn signal will not return to neutral after a
I had a Ford Freestar do the same thing. If it keeps blinking and the the lever does not come back to neutral then it is the multi-function switch. There is a little piece that is inside made of plastic that catches on the steering wheels internals that shuts it off when the wheel is turned the opposite direction. Sounds like yours is broken and that means a new multi-function switch. you cant repair the switch, you have to replace it unfortunately. if this is your problem I can almost guarantee its result of holding the switch through turning, it makes a clicking noise and you can feel the lever jumping. hope this helps.
