We are having issues when we use our turn signals. Most of the time our signals don't won't work unless we wiggle (with force) our hazard light button. Then we hear buzzing and crackling that is mostly continuous in our hazard button. This happens when we are driving or sitting still. It does stop clicking when we shut the car off, but does often continue when we start our car back off. The crackling/buzzing noise has went on for as long as 15 minutes . I'm sure it would have gone on for longer, but we wiggled the hazard button and places a folded piece of paper to lodge it quiet. We have an extremely hard time using our turn signals at times, they just quit working unless we wiggle our hazard light button.. All of this happens with normal day to day driving.

My car was not included in the federal safety agency action number: ea02037 for the same issue. My car was manufactured 1 day after the deadline of 5/1/2001. The turn signals work intermittently. We are able to get them to function by putting the signal into the "on" position and pressing the hazard light button on and off and the turn signal will stay on until switched off. I contacted the dealer and the manufacturer and both confirmed I was not included in the recall. I found out this was happening prior to my purchase of the vehicle after purchase. I do not feel gm complied fully with recalling vehicles and still put in faulty switches after the date as I am not the only one that has the problem and wasn't included in the recall.
