The right turn signal continually blows out on my 1998 buick regal. I am concerned that it will start a fire in my engine compartment.
1998 Buick Regal lights complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 22 of 22, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Turn singals dont work, even when replaced. I have the worst time with the drivers side turn signal. It has cost me alot of money to repair, but still doesnt work.
Failure of driver's side rear brake light to activate when brake pedal is depressed. Passenger side and high mount light work fine. Left turn signal (which is the same wire as the brake) also works. After being ticketed for equipment failure, had diagnosed and found that the problem was in the multi function switch in the steering column. This switch controls turn signals, wipers, cruise control, etc. Since this occured I have noticed other general motors vehicles with the same or similar problem. This is a safety hazard and I wonder if any investigations have been done on this problem?
Turn signal comes on and off intermittently when applied. Cause of problem undetermined at this time.
While driving, consumer tried to use the signal lever, however it would not work. Mechanic replaced the multi function switch.
While driving the passenger side front tire blew out, the tire was totally destroyed along with the rim being damaged, the rim could not be repaired (the firestone,fr 680, p215/70r15).
Consumer received recall information (99v‑356), consumer is not sure about the recall procedure, information was previously supplied that conflicts and is confusing to consumer.
Recall notice was received & understood. But, certificate wasn't helping to correct the problem. Headlights on low beam didn't cover visibilty for driving which could be dangerous. High beams worked fine. Dealer has tried & no success.
When high beam lights are on, if you are in a shallow right turn and another vehicle approaches, you are unable to change to low beams. The headlight lever hits the steering wheel and will not change from high to low beams.
Moisture has accumulated on inside of headlight lens. Console latch broken, repaired by dealer. Wiper arms would not remove snow, linkage disconnected, repaired by dealer, then went off windshield, repaired a total of 3 times. Half of digital temperature-radio display went dim, repaired by dealer. Digital supercharger boost guage intermitently sticks above zero, dealer could not identify problem.
Headlights are not bright enough to view the road clearly due to the design of the headlight lens. Please give any further details.
Directional signals are too small.
