NHTSA Complaint #10344889 — 1999 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE

TURN SIGNAL/HAZARD FLASHERS.ON OCCASION WILL NOT WORK PERIOD, OR TURN ON WITH NO BLINKING. WIGGLING THE HAZARD SWITCH CAN BRING BACK THE FLASHING/FLICKERING. REPLACED PART ONCE FOR THE SAME REASON, WAS GOOD FOR THREE MONTHS,BUT IT CAME BACK AGAIN. THE IRONY, THE CAR HAS AN NO START/SECURITY LIGHT PROBLEM, BUT WHEN I INSTALLED THE NEW HAZARD FLASHER, I DID NOT HAVE THE NO START PROBLEM UNTIL THE HAZARD SWITCH FAILED AGAIN. NOW IT MAKES ONE WONDER IF THE HAZARD SWITCH PLAYS A ROLL IN THE SECURITY/PASSKEY NO START SCENARIO. SECONDLY, I SEE THE RECALL FOR THE IMPALA/MALIBU/ MONTE CARLOGRAND AM/ GRAND PRIX/ALERO. THE SECURITY LIGHT AND PASSLOCK ISSUE, IF TRIPPED WILL CUT FUEL SUPPLY, I STILL HEAR THE FUEL PUMP PRIMING, AS PASSKEY IS NOT A STARTER KILL, IT IS RATHER A FUEL KILL. I ALSO REPLACED THE STARTER/AND IGNITION SWITCH, AND STILL THIS PROBLEM EXISTS. THEREFORE, I HAVE TWO ISSUES, FIRST THE TURN SIGNAL THAT DIES OUT, UNTIL YOU WIGGLE THE HAZARD SWITCH MIGHT BRING IT BACK. AND A SECOND INDEPENDENT ISSUE OF THE SECURITY LIGHT/NO START ISSUE. THE SECURITY LIGHT CAN BE ON, AND THE VEHICLE WILL RESTART NO PROBLEM, AND TIMES WITH NO SECURITY LIGHT , AND NO START. I MEAN BY NO START, THE CAR WILL NOT TURN/CRANK PERIOD. GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD BE INVOLVED IN THIS MATTER, THESE ARE DEFECTIVE PARTS, THAT ARE WIDESPREAD AND NOT JUST AT RANDOM. GENERAL MOTORS NEEDS TO ACT PROPERLY, AND THE NHTSA SHOULD FOLLOW UP ON THIS MATTER CLOSELY TO FIND A PROPER REPAIR RATHER THAN GUESSING WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THANK YOU *TR
