Pontiac Grand Am Exterior Lighting Hazard Flashing Warning Lights Switch Safety Report | Sept 09, 2003
Reported on Sept 09, 2003
| THE TURN SIGNALS WOULD WORK INTERMITTANTLY. DEALER SAID THE SIGNALS SHOULD WORK AGAIN IF THE HAZZARD SWITCH IS ENGAGED AND THEN DISENGAGED. THIS DID HELP SOLVE THE PROBLEM WHEN IT WOULD ARISE. TOOK THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE AND THEY REPLACED THE HAZZARD SWITCH. THIS DID FIX THE PROBLEM. ANOTHER SERVICE SHOP SAID THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS PART DUE TO A BAD SOLDER JOINT IN THE SWITCH AND THEY HAVE CHANGED OUT QUITE A FEW SWITCHES. LOOKED ONLINE TO SEE IF THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PART IN MY CAR TYPE. THERE IS BUT MY CAR IS NOT LISTED AS ONE WHERE THIS FIX IS AURTHORIZED. | |
