Q: Dashboard problem?

asked by on January 24, 2017

When I turn off my car, my turn signals begins to flash simultaneously and begins to make aloud screeching noise. It only does this when I turn it off. When I turn it on, it stops. But then here's another problem. My gas meter will say I'm out of gas even when im at a full tank and My turn sinals won't work when I use them. Anyone have any idea what could be the problem?

My car has 167088 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
