This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact stated the turn signals and hazard lights worked intermittently. The dealership was contacted. They were aware of other Chevrolet vehicles which had a problem with the wiring switch in the steering column. However, there were no recalls. No repairs have been made, and the problem was progressively getting worse.
Over the past couple of months we have noticed that the turn signals on our 2001 Monte Carlo have started failing. They will be fine sometimes, and then out of the blue they will stop working. This problem sometimes lasts for just a few minutes, and recently we have gone for days without them working. After calling several dealerships and local mechanics we have learned that they have fixed alot of this problems, and are getting complaints about these turn signals. One gentleman told us it could be the hazard switch, but probably is the turn signal. This truly is a safety concern of ours considering we are never sure when we hit the signal if it is going to come on, or fail us again.
