Pontiac Grand Am Exterior Lighting Safety Report | Dec 28, 2010
Reported on Dec 28, 2010
| 2004 PONTIAC GRAND AM WITH APPROXIMATELY 65,000 MILES. CLICKING SOUND NORMALLY ASSOCIATED WITH DIRECTIONAL/TURN SIGNAL IS BEING HEARD, EVEN WHEN DIRECTIONAL IS NOT IN USE. SOMETIMES THE CLICKING IS ACTIVATED BY MOVING OR TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CLICKING IS NOT CONSTANT OR CONSISTENT, BUT IT DOES OCCUR EVERY TIME THE DIRECTIONAL SIGNAL IS USED. THE SOUND APPEARS TO COME FROM THE DASHBOARD AREA (NEAR THE RADIO AND HAZARD LIGHT BUTTON). THE DEALERSHIP IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND HAS DIAGNOSED IT AS A FAULTY/DIRTY MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH, WHICH HE SAYS HE REPLACES FREQUENTLY. IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, I BELIEVE GENERAL MOTORS (PONTIAC) SHOULD ADDRESS THE ISSUE BEFORE IT TURNS MORE SERIOUS. *TR | |
