1st Problem
For the last few months my turn signals have been malfunctioning, occasionally working and stopping. My hazard lights work, so I'm assuming the wiring is fine. I was thinking possibly the turn signal switch?

2nd Problem
I've had problems starting my car in the past and took it into the mechanic. Had the fuel pump and starter replaced. The vehicle starts but it takes 2-3 cranks to get going. I've had the mechanic warranty out the starter 3 times and it still has the same problem. Any ideas anyone? I was thinking maybe a bad ignition?

3rd Problem
About the time my turn signals started to malfunction, my trunk stopped opening. I checked the fuse and it was out. When I attempted to put a new fuse in, it immediately shorts the fuse. Not sure what would cause this.

4th Problem
My car tends to make a sound when I accelerate. There's a sound like bits and pieces of rust running through the cooling system. Also another sound like a small train. I had a light come on saying I was low on coolant, so I refilled. When I put coolant in, the second sound goes away, but the first persists. I'm thinking about doing a coolant flush and using a Radiator/Head Gasket stop leak in the process before refilling. Anyone have any thoughts about the best product, or if I should or should not do this based on the symptoms?

Any help is appreciated!
