| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I'm not for sure if your interested in this type of complaint, but i received a letter from oldsmobile pertaining to my 2002 olds. alero that there was a possible problem with the turning signal and/or hazards. this letter came from their recall center but it stated in the letter it wasn't a recall. well a couple of months previously my turning signal would stop working while i was driving then it would work, stop working, work but never for too long of time. sometimes it would be fine for weeks then it would start up again. well, after i received this letter i was for sure that this letter probably pertained to my problem and made an appointment with the olds. dealer in vincennes, in. when i went to pick it up, they said the turn signal never quit working, which i replied its going to be a one in a million chance that it will do it for you. i would have to leave my car there for a month for it to occur for them to catch it, i just thought this problem was what the letter was referring to. he stated if he fixed everything that could possible be wrong with the turn signal i would have a repair bill as long as his arm. my concern is i feel like i could be in a serious accident if the turn signal quits working again or getting a ticket for not using it when it actually failed. i'm kind of at a loss of what i actually can do. i know this might not be the problem they are referring to because they really didn't explain in the letter it just said contact your olds dealer, which they were of no help. i asked him if he was aware of the letter sent out and he said kind of. any help you can give me would be appreciated. *jb |
