Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I bought my car when it was a year old, since buying the car, i have had to pay 800 dollars to have the ignition switch changed, which i found out later the dealership should have only charged 400. i have also responded to the turn signal recall to have the hazard switch fixed only to have the same switch go out again, not even 2 years later. i am being told that it will cost at least 200.00 to fix. instead of the turn signals not working now there is a constant clicking in the dash, which they said is caused by the hazard switch being defective...if that is the case then why would they replace the original switch with a defective one and not replace the defective one? *nm
