While driving along hwy 101 the overheat light turned on and the temperature gage jumped to over the limit. We pulled over and checked the vehicle, it was not hot. However, the gage would not return to normal, causing the vehicle the chug and have very little drive until 15 minutes down the road it kicked back into normal like a bat outta hell. This, along a mountainous fast moving highway with logging trucks on my tail; not a very safe situation. On this same trip, the passenger window would not go back up, @ 55mph and 40 degrees, it was not pleasant.
