“I was driving my car on the byway and took the interstate merge lane while increasing my speed to merge into traffic I felt a snap in my steering wheel and gas pedal, I then lost the dash and the car immediately overheated, I had no real power to turn the wheel and the gas pedal was a loose push.

“The turn signals and hazard signals suddenly stopped flashing. Intermittently, they flash rapidly when activated, but they typically just stay on continuously. This appears to be the same problem which LED to a recall on the 2000 and 2001 models of this same car (NHTSA campaign id number 03v327000): exterior lighting:hazard flashing warning lights:switch . I think it would be appropriate to extend the recall to the 1997 Malibu models.”

“Exterior brake tail lights are constantly blowing out. Have replaced bulbs at my own expense four times in the last year. Today I was pulled over by the police and issues a warning because it has blown out yet again. Lost of condensation is gettin inside the lamp itself.”
