1 Turn Signal problem

Failure Date: 12/06/2016

The turn signal in the left rear tail lamp assembly which is a sealed led based system is not working. I reached out to Cadillac dealers and the part has been discontinued. This renders the vehicle unsafe as it cannot be legally driven and neither can it be repaired or resold as there is not a substitute part. Gm used a supplier called guide corporation, which has went out of business. I believe gm should recover their tools and move them to another supplier in order to resume manufacturing of this key safety component.

2 Turn Signal problem

Failure Date: 09/06/2006

Drl, turn signal parking lamp failure. Recall reported to dealer by me in July 2006. I was told, after some discuss, that the parts would be ordered and I will be notified. Today, September 6, 2006, for the third time the above described failed. Please advise. Nm.
