| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My 1999 oldsmobile alero two door has been having problems with the emergency flashers and turn indicators. often times when the lever is engaged the blinkers will make a click sound as they do when they are working and fail to continue blinking. the solution i have found is to push the emergency flasher button on the dashboard. this is sometimes effective in getting the blinkers to begin working again. however, when it doesn't solve the problem, i am unable to properly signal for turns. this has on several occasions caused problems for me at stop signs and uncontrolled intersections. in addition, the wiring (not sure if it's related) for the windows has caused my windows to not work. i'm sure you can understand that if i am unable to roll down my windows, and my blinkers don't work, then there is virtually no way to signal my turns and lane changes properly. the blinkers fuse has never blown. the emergency flashers and blinkers are obviously related from the sound and fact that they seem to cause the other to fail or begin to work. i have done a small amount of research and found there was a recall for the 2000 year of my car. obviously, that doesn't help my situation. please contact me so we can find a solution that is less costly than the collision that is imminent from these failures.*ak |
