Consumer Description

WHILE USING MY TURN SIGNALS TURNING LEFT I NOTICED THE FLASHER ON THE DASH HAD FROZEN AND THAT SMOKE WAS POURING OUT OF THE HAZARD FLASHER BUTTON AND ALSO OUT OF THE BASE OF THE TURN SIGNAL STEM. THIS CAN BE REPEATED ALMOST EVERY TIME I USE THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL. THE DEALSHIP WILL BE LOOKING AT IT ON 10/27/2000.*AK (DOT NUMBER: VDHL)
