Consumer Description

THERE IS A PROBLEM, APPARENTLY WITH THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH, WHICH CONTROLS THE BLINKERS AMONG OTHER THINGS. AFTER THE BLINKERS SHUT OFF, IT IS CAUSING A RAPID CLICKING NOISE NEAR OR IN THE FLASHERS. I CHECKED A WEB SITE, AND IT APPEARS MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. I HAD THE FLASHER SWITCH REPLACED ON A RECALL, AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL OCCURRING. IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT A MONTH. IT IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE AT THE LEAST IT IS VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. AND I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT MY BLINKERS WILL SUDDENLY STOP WORKING, OR THAT THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM COULD CREATE A FIRE. *NM
