Consumer Description

THE HAZARD SWITCH IS FAULTY. ALL OF THE WIRING FOR THE BRAKE AND TURN SIGNALS GOES THROUGH THE HAZARD SWITCH. EVERY CORVETTE FORUM DETAILS THE FAULTY HAZARD SWITCH. BECAUSE OF THE POOR QUALITY OF THE PART, AND THE POOR DESIGN OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, IF THE HAZARD SWITCH MALFUNCTIONS, THERE ARE NO BRAKE LIGHTS, AND/OR NO TURN SIGNALS OR HAZARD LIGHTS. THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT THE SWITCH IS MALFUNCTIONING UNTIL ANOTHER MOTORIST NOTIFIES YOU VERBALLY OR BY CRASHING INTO YOU, OR PERHAPS IF LAW ENFORCEMENT PULLS YOU OVER FOR IT. *TR
