the car blew a hose a few weeks ago we replaced the hose after that the temperature gage started giving false readings we made sure it was not air locked and still did not fix the problem so we replaced the thermostat twice and the sensor that connects to the fan and that still did not fix the problem. we decided to ignore the gage to see what it would do. It rises to to the point that the check gages light tuns on and falls back down to normal or below. we also checked for error codes to and there are not any.Any Idea what would be wrong?

Did you replace the large lower hose on the radiator? There's a spring in that hose to keep the pump suction from collapsing it. If you didn't put the spring in the new hose, the car will overheat.
You should always replace all the radiator and heater hoses when one blows since they're all going to be in the same shape.

Sounds like a bad sending unit.

Seems to be obvious to me that if your temperature gage is giving false readings, it must be connected to the Pentagon!

did you try changing the temperature sending unit?
