Turn signals work when they want to all the time. This is the exact problem that 670740 other 2001 Malibu have and they can be fixed with a recall. Mine is not covered in the recall when my car has the exact same issues. Why? no crash yet...but soon.
The turning signals and hazard lights quit working without warning. I have contacted GM according to the instruction on the Consumer Affairs website. GM has informed me my veichle is not involved in the recall.
Intermittently, the exterior signal lights will not work properly. The interior flashers operate normally, but the exterior lights will not respond. The manufacturer and the dealer are aware of the problem. If the hazard light switch is pushed several times, then the turn signals would work.
