Car Forum / Chevrolet / Chevrolet Malibu / July 2005Turn Signal/Hazard Light Failure on 2002 Malibu, Grand Am, or Alero vehicles
I just got the following e-mail in response to a complaint I lodged. See below for background. If you'll send e-mail to mtrac@onuj.com (reverse domain) I'll pass along the sender's phone # and e-mail. Please follow up if you own (or owned, since I think you'll be reimbursed for repairs in a recall) one of these vehicles and have had this problem. http://groups-beta.google.com/group/alt.autos.chevrolet.malibu/msg/c11045c2e502be30 Dear Sir or Madam, You are receiving this e-mail because you filed a consumer complaint with us concerning Turn Signal/Hazard Light Failure on model year 2002 Chevrolet Malibu or Pontiac Grand Am or Oldsmobile Alero vehicles. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) is presently reviewing a number of these complaints. To consistently identify the failure consequences associated with turn signal/hazard light failure, we are seeking copies of any repair/remedy records and/or the actual defective component. Please either e-mail scanned copies of these records to this address or fax them to my attention on (202) 366-7882. Also, please state, if known, whether it was the hazard warning switch (flasher)locate behind the dash or the multifunction switch locate in the steering column that failed. Should you have questions or comments, please feel free to call me on (202) 366-xxxx. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated. Steve Chan Safety Defects Engineer NHTSA/ODI TOP POST!!!!! Most of these already have recalls on them ..Best to check with the dealer to see if you do also..

They do, but only for specific model years. The 2002 Malibu does not and the dealer verified this when I brought it in. The purpose of my post was to get owners to file complaints and submit documentation so we can get the 2002MY recalled, too. Recall search http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/problems/recalls/recallsearch.cfm Good idea Mike .. where do a person complain (located in Canada)... as for I have a 2002 Malibu with the same problem... when my signal lights don't work I turn the hazard lights on & off three or four times and then they work again for a little while... I think GM should have to fix the problem, since seems like many people have this problem..... >> TOP POST!!!!! >> Most of these already have recalls on them ..Best to check with the [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Recall search > http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/problems/recalls/recallsearch.cfm > Good idea Mike .. where do a person complain (located in Canada)... as for I > have a 2002 Malibu with the same problem... when my signal lights don't work > I turn the hazard lights on & off three or four times and then they work > again for a little while I'm not sure about Canada, but try http://www.tc.gc.ca/roadsafety/tp/tp2822/menu.htm. BTW, instead of using the hazard lights, try banging the top of the dashboard above the hazard switch. |
