The electronic modules that control those items need to run a while. Put 20 minutes or so driving it around...not just sitting in one place idling. This will re educate the electronics to operate correctly.

swing by your local auto parts store for a free load test on the battery, and charging system too in my area, autozone and advance auto parts does this free service in the parking lot they'll show you the voltage readings and let you know if your charging system is keeping the battery charged or if you have a bad cell on that brand new battery (which you can exchange under warranty from the place you bought it from)

Have you had the ball joint and strut checked out ?

It's not uncommon for the timing belt to break or "come off the guide" with that many miles on the vehicle. Unfortunately if the engine was running when this happened it may have caused severe damage as in a bent valve or worse yet a hole in the top of a piston from a valve hitting it.

You have a blown fuse or the GPS has went bad.

locate the oil pan. on it will be a bolt that ull need to undo witha wrench or socket. have a drain pan under and try not to drop the bolt in to the pan cause the oil should come out pretty fast. while thats draining i like to pull the cap off for the oil filler on the top of the engine.
once that is done draining if u are to replace the oil filter which i always do every oil change. locate it. and remove it also with the drain bucket underneath. because it will be full of oil., before putting a new oil filter in take one of the new quarts crack it open and pour a small amount into the cap. take ur finger and stick it in it and lube the rubber ring on the new filter. helps seal and prevent it from seizing. once that is in. put the drain plug back in tighten it down and fill up the oil to the specs.

sounds like a wiring problem unless you are a mechanic take it to a dealer

What colour is the smoke? The easiest way to check this is on first start when the engine is cold. This can give clues as to where the problem could be. is the vehicle doing anything else different? A blue exhaust smoke is commonly oil getting into the cylinders. White smoke suggests coolant getting into the cylinders. Black smoke is the engine running too rich. Blue or white smoke can often mean a blown head gasket. On a 2001 engine that could the most likely reason.
