I received letter from GMC informing of a recall on the hazard flashing warning light (03V327000 or GMC # 03043. I was already experiencing issues at that time the dealer told me that it would have to be completely inoperable to be replaced. It is now inoperable and I have now been informed that my VIN # falls outside of the recall. How is it determined which VIN's are effected" is there any way to reinvestigate the effected VIN's" I would like to resolve this issue before the car is involved in an accident and not after. Thank you.

GM told me that my VIN number for my Oldsmobile Alero 2000 does not apply to NHTSA recall 03V327000. (GM recall 03043)this recall exactly describes the problem that I have been having with my care off and on for quite a while. The turn signals and hazard lights intermittently fail. It is dangerous to expect the turn signal to work and find it does not.

Turn signals started failing a few years after we bought the car. We changed them a few years ago and later got a recall notice about them failing. They were fine at the time that we got the recall notice about 2 years ago and just recently they started failing again. They go off and I never know when they are going to not work. Sometimes they go really fast and sometimes they slow down. Other times they just do not go on at all. I never know when that is going to happen.

Intermittent turn signal and hazard lamps. At times while driving turn signals will not work at all. Often times hazards will flash or chick rapidly during normal driving. Same symptoms as GM recall 03043 or NHTSA campaign id 03V327000, however my VIN [xxx] is not included in recall. GM shows only [xxx] through [xxx] in recall. These earlier VIN use the same part and have the same problem as those listed in the recall. Center console was removed for access and it was verified that any slight pressure to the combination 'hazard switch/flasher circuit board' will replicate the failures. Problem is not resolved causing vehicle have a dangerous safety issue. Updated 07/16/2012 information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Please refer to recall#03V327000 or GM recall number 03043. My 2000 Oldsmobile Alero is affected with the problem. But I have not received a recall notice. When I contacted GM they refuse to perform the required repair. I continue to have the problem of turn signal and hazard lamp intermittent not working. This implies the GM has not done a exhaustive work of identifying all affected cars.
