Consumer complained about hazard warning switch problem. A recall was currently issued. However, this vehicle was not included due to VIN.
While driving at any speed hazard and signal lights did not work properly. The hazard and signal lights malfunctioned over thirty times. A recall was issued on this make/model and year, but consumer's vehicle was not part of recall due to VIN. *ak this was an intermittent problem. The dealer was unable to remedy the problem. The problem would also occur in the rain more than once and while in traffic.
I found a recall on the federal safety agency site which exactly described a problem I am having with my turn signals failing to function. Upon reporting the problem to a gm dealer, I was informed that although I am having a problem exactly as described by the recall, my VIN falls outside the recall group. My vehicle has a dangerous malfunction that won't be replaced by the dealer because supposedly the problem had been fixed.
Intermittently. Turn signal and hazard warning light were not working. Dealer and was manufactured were notified. Please provide further information.
The hazard warning switch is causing the turn signals to malfunction.
Vehicle's turn signals and hazard lights failed.*mr the consumer stated the problem his vehicle experienced was similar to recall #03v327000, however the vehicle was built prior to the affected vehicle, the consumer replaced the hazard switch himself at a cost of $28.00.
Problems with the turn signal working only intermittently. A very dangerous situation. Was told by the dealership my vehicle was not covered by recall due to the VIN. I am having the same problems as the aleros in the recall campaign.
Consumer complained that turn signals operated poorly. When the turn signals malfunctioned, the consumer hit the hazard button and they began to work again. The consumer did not take the vehicle to be checked because he was told to take it to an oldsmobile dealer and when he took it to the oldsmobile dealer, he was told to take the vehicle back where he purchased it. *ak the consumer replaced the hazard switch at $28.00 now the hazards and turn signal lights work fine. *cb
Hazard light and turn signals work intermittently. The dealer florin road kia has looked at it twice and still not fixed the problem. Also the window on the passenger side will not roll down. I have already replaced the drivers side window motor. I am very unhappy with this car, I just bought it in february!!!!!!!!

2000 oldsmobile alero - turn signal/hazard lamp failure I have a copy of a recall notice #03v‑327 from the federal safety agency to gm regarding this condition, however no one at my local dealership nor anyone at the national customer service center knows anything about it or is willing to honor it. I feel it is a dangerous situation that gm - having fullnotice of the risk involved - needs to act on before more consumers experience this as I have.
On my 2000 alero the turn signals work sometimes, no other times. Also blink erratically. The upper middle brake light is the only one that works. Flashers stop working sometimes, then start again. I believe this is some type of short in the wiring system. I know of two other alero owners that are experiencing the same problems.
The federal safety agency recall # 03 v 327 000/hazard warning switch: vehicle turn signals/hazard lights become intermittent or inoperative when used. Dealer was contacted, and they informed that they were not notified of this recall.
I bought the car 1 year used, and the brakes had just been replaced by the dealer. Not even a few months later the brakes started to pulsate and the steering wheel would shake upon braking. I replaced the rotors and brake pads with the best on the market, thinking it would last a long time. A few months later the same problem happened again. They should do a recall on the brakes. Also the drivers side window motor broke and was replaced. The hazard switch was replaced, the turn signals fixed due to an electrical problem, the gear shifter knob was replaced because it fell off for no reason. The antilock brakes/service vehicle soon lights come on at random times when there is no problem at all. The transmission is leaking as well. I see that many many people with this car have the same problems and oldsmobile should do a recall on all these things since they are not just random occurrences.
Turn signal failed. Consumer notified the dealership.
Internal failure on hazard switch.
I have a 2000 olsmobile alero. The turn signal only works about 89% of the time. The manufacturer has redesigned the switch that fixed the problem but will not recall the switch. This is a serious safety issue and is in my opinion due to manufacturer defect. I have heard several other complaints of similiar problems at a yahoo webpage for oldsmobile owners. Please follow with this and test, I feel the manufacturer should recall the equipment and be fixed.
The brake rotors turned twice and replaced once. This caused the brake pads to have to be replaced. The drivers door automatic window motor had to be replaced twice and now the passenger door window was doing the same thing. The interior light fell out and had to be put back in. The sun visor came loose and had to be tightened again. The cd player had to be replaced. A backlash of electricity caused a fuse to be replaced. The car died on a highway and towed to the dealership. The intact manifold leaked, it was tightened up and one month later the same problem happened again. The drivers side seat belt did not detract automatically.
Car windows dont go down ,signal lights dont always work
Turn signals on my 2000 oldsmobile alero suddenly stopped working. I believe this is a common problem and think that oldsmobile should pay to fix the broken switch.
Turn signals do not work 95% of the time, a huge saftey feature on a car. Hazard switch does not work either, and most of the time I have to touch the hazard switch to make the turn signals work and by doing this I have take at least one hand from the steering wheel. This can cause me to lose control of the car, causing an accident. Dt
Consumer states while driving the turn signal switch will go out, leaving the vehicle without a turn signal, almost causing an accident. Dealer contacted, part is on a national back order. This is the second time switch needed replacing. Ts
Front driver side power window regulator failed. Window will not roll up or down. Rear seat does not clasp into proper harness - I too kit to russ darrow and they said a seat is "cosmetic, and it is as fixed as it is going to get".. Turn signals do not work 70% of the time. The lighter was pushed into the main jack to be used, the lighter never popped out properly. As a result both jacks are inoperable. Rotors were replaced at 37,000 but there is still very loud wobbling noises and tire noise. Dealer suggests new tires, the tread is fine on the current tires. New tires will only mask the noises.
Brake pads and rotors were replaced and resurfaced twice.
Turn signals worked only intermittently, dealer replaced switch.
