1 Wiring problem

Failure Date: 03/08/2008

At random the blinker and electrical system fail in my 2006 Cadillac Srx v6 awd. I was driving and turned on the blinker to make a turn and the blinker did not sound and did not function. This problem does not happen regularly it is a 1 in a 100. I have had my Cadillac in to a Cadillac dealer multiple times to have this corrected and I fear that more cars may have this problem and an accident may occur. At times where the blinker fails the radio also may skip stations.
