Consumer Description

ALL CHIMES HAVE STOPPED WORKING. FRONT SPEAKERS OUT AS WELL. NOTICED FOR THE LAST YEAR OR SO THAT WHEN THE SPEAKERS KICK OUT (MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF DRIVING OR STATIONARY), THE CHIMES STOP WORKING. NO "KEY IN THE IGNITION" ALARM, NO TURN SIGNAL CLICKING, NO SEAT BELT ALARM, ETC. WHEN IT DOES WORK, EVERYTHING WORKS. WHEN IT GOES OUT, IT ALL GOES OUT AT ONCE. NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE THE TURN SIGNAL ASSY. BECAUSE THE INTERNAL WHITE PLASTIC PIECE THAT KICKS OFF THE TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS IS BROKEN. I HAVE SEEN MANY POSTS FOR THE ALARM CHIME ISSUE FROM DIFFERENT BLOGS, BUT GM STILL INSISTS THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM. I AM NOW AT 99,765 MILES ON A 10 YEAR OLD CAR. I WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS FIXED.
