“The lever used to engage the high and low beam broke three times without excessive force being applied. When the lever broke it disengaged the cruise control and the light remained on.”

NHTSA complaint #10055886, filed 2004-04, 20,000 miles

“While driving a column of smoke developed from the top of the steering column, directly in front of the driver. This occurred approximately one mile after noticing that the turn signal did not seem to operate properly during a turn. The smoke was also accompanied by the smell of an electrical fire. Immediately stopping the car and turning off the ignition stopped the smoke. The car was then driven approximately 5-10 miles to the dealer with no further smoke. The Chevrolet dealer stated that the problem was caused by the turn signal switch shorting out. The switch was then replaced. …”
