Following is part of the background first submitted 9/6 to Chevy for a major safety issue with our 1999 Blazer... closely related to a recent GM recall for faulty hazard and turn signal lights. Our hazard/blinker flasher just started (9/1) turning on/clicking intermittently for no apparent reason... doing so randomly about half the time. This concerns us for our safety... as we are now constantly making both kinds of major safety errors that can happen with this defect: We frequently think the blinkers are on for a turn were making, when in reality they are not, but the flasher is clicking just like they are on, so we wrongly think they are on. The other error is that we have accidentally turned the blinkers on and don't realize it since the flashing noise is happening so much. The major reason for our concern is a statement from our local Chevy service tech around our exact issue... as our exact concerns/issues stem from a well known/documented safety issue with Blazer (per the words of our Chevy service tech around our exact issue, & this has been a big/major problem with Blazer &... and '90% of the time a defective multi-function switch/contacts is responsible for the identical symptoms we were experiencing', and indeed unique to Chevy/GMC.) given how emphatic/honest the service tech was with us, you should be able to readily substantiate his statement through Chevy's records around repairs for this problem. As such, our safety issue is clearly: A well known/documented safety design issue with Blazer, and related to the recent safety recall for GM flashers; with our Blazer only a year off of the recalled vehicle age; unique to Chevy, and as such, not 'normal wear/tear that should be expected'). we very much appreciate the opportunity to forward our concerns to your Agency, and look forward to hearing from you on your latitude to pursue this further after continual rejections from Chevy. Thank you in advance.

Blazer 4WD

Problem with lane change feature in turn signal switch. Lane change signal will operate front or rear signal indicator indepentalty or just give audio acknowledge for flash with no indicators illuminated. In many cases the only indication is the flasher will flash at a more rapid rate. Many GM cars and trucks have this problem and it is very dangerous because the operator does not know that an indicator is not illuminated because the dash indicator is operating and one or more outside (front or rear) indicators will not be operating.
