Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The turn signal on my 2002 vw jetta, vin [xxx] operates at random. this condition sometimes occurs after going over bumps or after completing a lane change maneuver. the turn signal switch is in the center, or "off" position but the turn signal / hazard flasher starts and/or stops at random. vw's safety recall vx dated march 2005 claims that my vehicle is outside the range of affected vins but clearly this is not the case. please investigate this concern and consider forcing vw to do a more extensive recall as this problem is not just annoying, it is potentially a safety concern. an accident or electrical fire could possibly result from this condition. *nm updated 07/16/2012 *js information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)
