My turning signals work on and off all of a sudden. The first time it happened I was on the freeway and was attempting to get over and my right turning signal wouldn't work but the left turning signal worked fine. Then after a day or two the right turning signal would work but then the left turning signal won't work. Then all of a sudden they would both work then both stop working. Now a month has passed and neither one of them work most the time, but will work for a hot second and then stop working. This is only for the rear turning signal though the front turning signal have always worked properly and still do.

I first started having this problem in october 2015. I purchased this vehicle in july 2015. I trusted this company because I seen they had great reviews. I actually trader my previous car in because it was having problems starting and also shutting off while driving. Now my current car is having probelms starting. I had my battery, alternator & starter checked, and it was good. The company I bought the car from provided warranty coverage on the vehicle. I took the car to get serviced in the beginning of october for an engine mount replacement. They replaced my engine mounts and fuel pump. 2 days after that service I started having issues starting the car. When you put the key in you usually hear beeping noise and I didn't. Than my battery light, ABS light, trac off light came on and stayed on and in the message center tracking system light came up. This was very inconvenient due to the weather and having to get 2 toddlers ready for school in the am. I took the car to my mechanic and he replaced the ignition switch. I didn't take it back to the same place because everytime you take it for service my deductible is $100. After 2 weeks after replacing the ignition switch the problem happened again. So I called my warranty service center they said to bring it back but if it needs fixing I have to pay again. (also I am paying a car note of $115 a week). I refuse to keep paying money for this problem. This can be very dangerous in so many ways. It's very fustrating because I trader my previous car (2000 buick regal) in for the same reason. I'm not sure if it's a wiring issue, sensor issue or maybe when they changed my engine mounts or fuel pump something got disconnected. This problem didn't start until they did service on my vehicle. Please I need some help on what to do. Little minor issues I don't mind keeping up with but something like this needs to be fixed!

My passlock system has been malfunctioning for years now (2007-2015) and at random intervals, my car will not start and I have to wait 15 minutes before the engine will start. Sometimes the "security" light will turn on while I am operating the vehicle and after I have parked it, the security light will flash and I can't start the engine until after the 15 minute cycle has concluded. Not only has this issue been an inconvenience, but I have had occasions where it has put me in danger. I am not responsible for the passlock system failure, nor do I have the funds to repair or remove it. I believe that passlock was a faulty system from the beginning and the fact that it has not been recalled shocks me. I am very afraid that one day the passlock system malfunction will occur when the vehicle is in motion and that I will lose power steering, braking, and other vital operational functions. Noticeably, the passlock malfunction has become more frequent, so I needed to file this complaint. I have talked to service experts at my local chevy dealership and they have told me on more than one occasion that this issue is widespread, including many gm vehicles, and that eventually my car just won't start anymore. The quoted prices to fix this issue (either repairing it or removing it entirely) have been ridiculously high and I don't understand why I should be forced into paying for a well-known gm/chevrolet problem.
