So this all started with a bad turn signal/ parking light not working. Replaced bulb numerous times, the pigtail, socket. Searching for a bad ground somewhere and not finding it. Checking fuses replacing relays. I found out later that there was a safety recall that I should take it in to get that looked at and they suggested a TIPM replacement.
Car acts possessed! Randomly the radio changes station, dings when put brakes on, windshield wipers go off, radio turns off/on, headlights dim/brighten, headlights go out, dash panel goes out.
The headlights, turn signals, and brake lights don't work. keep getting stop by police officer getting warnings, and tickets, can not drive my car after 6:30pm because of the headlights, turn signal, and brake lights issue. I replace the TIPM with a new one the problem came back and now every time it happens i have to open and unplug the TIPM and it will reset in 24 hours why? I don't know. However, this last time is not working and i will not pay $900 dollars again to get a new TIPM. I am still paying GM Financial for this car and is not driveable at night. I want GM to take action and responsibility for their faulty product, I want them to fix my car. I don't want to keep paying for something that is not working properly.
Just had this damn thing fixed last month and now no windshield wipers and no left turn blinker. The dealership said that the part was defective. No crap...really?
I had no dashboard lights, but I didn't know that I also didn't have tail lights until a policeman stopped me. Thankfully I showed him that I had an appointment to get the dashboard fixed the next day, so I didn't get a ticket.
