Consumer Description

2009 SATURN VUE XR. IN DECEMBER 2010 I NOTICED INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD OCCASIONALLY START FLICKERING, APPROX. 2 HZ RATE. PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT; SEVERAL REPAIR SHOPS SAID "PROBABLY A SHORT..." BUT I NEVER HAD ANYONE ACTUALLY TRY TO TROUBLESHOOT. ON JAN 15 2011 I NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR SPINDLE WAS VERY HOT TO THE TOUCH. I WAS CONCERNED THAT IT MIGHT GET HOT ENOUGH TO START A FIRE. I TOOK THE VISOR DOWN FROM THE HEADLINER, HOPING TO FIND A CONNECTOR FOR THE WIRES, BUT IT WAS HARD WIRED, SO I SNIPPED AND TAPED OFF THE WIRES AND REMOUNTED THE VISOR. THE FLICKERING PROBLEM HAS NOT RETURNED, SO I BELIEVE THE TWO TO BE RELATED. *TR
