Question type: Maintenance & Repair

2008 dodge charger. Car was turned on, I
turned it off and the car stayed on. It started
making unusual noises and dash went
crazy. I did not want to break down at the
gas station so, with the key to the on
position I put the car and drive to try and
make it home. I got about 1/4 of a mile and
lost Power, power steering, dashboard went
nuts. Hood started smoking And smelt like
electrical. PLEASE HELP. Just paid it off.
