“Since february of 2015, I have had a constant battle with my turn signal on passenger side of my car hindering my ability to signal properly and renewing my state inspection each year. Have spend large amounts of money attempting to fix this only to realize this is widespread and very common issue with my type and year vehicle. Gm is aware of this dealer safety malfunction but is only recalled certain VIN numbers as to fix as few as possible. Not having turn signals has nearly caused me to be involved in several accidents. Please help me and tell me what I can do. …”
