15 Hazard Flashing Warning Light Unit problem

Failure Date: 06/08/2005

This vehicle was purchased by an individual for my son as a first car. Low miles and low price. When we recieved the title we found out that it was a salvage vehicle. My son being the teenager he was just excited to have four wheels never mentioned to us that the turn signals worked intermittingly. When we purchased another vehicle for my son for graduation, I started to drive the 2000 chevy Malibu and noticed the turn signals doing this. Then I noticed the hazards were doing the same intermittingly working. I made an appointment at the chevy house to get the problem fix and at the time from a friend found out about a factory recall for cars of this make and model with the same problem. When I went in they searched using the VIN # and said they could not help. Approximately 1 hour later I called the cheverolet company. At first they gave me a number and a code for a special policy complaint. Then after 25 minutes of my time he informed me that nothing could be done to fix the vehicle because it was a salvage vehicle. This is a factory defect. It had nothing to do with the vehicle being a salvage vehicle. If that is the case then why do state departments even allow these vehicles on the road . I just need the turn signals and hazards fixed so no innocent people will be hurt at any point. I can take this vehicle in for a diagnostic test also so it can be tested for this. I need this fix but it shouldn't be at my expense.

In late 2003, early 2004, the hazard lights stopped working and you had to hold button down to keep them on. At the time, I had not received a recall notice. I had my mechanic work on it and fix the wiring. In Aug. 2014, it became a problem again, which I haven't fixed yet. Due to recent recalls, of which I received a notice for having my ignition and keys fixed for my car, I went onto the NHTSA website to check past recall notices and saw one issued in Feb. 2004 for cars of my make/model/year for the hazard warning switch. (campaign #03v327000) by VIN number, it shows my car wasn't one with the defective switch, however, I believe there to be a problem there and it should be looked into.
