Smoke came out of the steering column when I took off from a stop light. It was not a great deal of smoke but enough for me to question the problem. I took it to the mechanic and he checked all the wiring in the column and did not find any burned wires. When he removed the air bag package he found what appeared to be burn marks on air bag assembly. He recommended that I take it to dealer at this time.
