Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Hazard warning switch causing intermittent blinker function. my 2000 alero doesn't fall within the recall range of vin numbers. nhtsa # 03v327000, gm recall # 03043. dealer wanted me to pay $125.00 to diagnose, or replace the switch for $136.00 { $28 for part and the rest is labor etc.} . my vin ends with yc362717. i purchased the part myself and spent about an hour replacing the defective switch. i think the recall should include more vehicles that exhibit the same symptoms. i would like reimbursement for my cost and labor. i have the old part. gm knew about my switch last year, but there was no recall yet.*ak
