Turn indicators and flashers not working.
1999 Malibu v6 with 70,000 miles. Turn signals have become erratic. I replaced the fuse, and it worked, but again at times, they don't work, and at times, they do. No real pattern. Sometimes, they work in the morning, sometimes in the afternoon, some times, when the engine is cold, and sometimes warmed up.
The turn signals quit without warning, this has been going on for about two months . The consumer attempted to use the turn signals and was almost struck from behind when she realized the turn signals were not working. The vehicle was has not been to a dealer yet. The turn signals come and go off, sometimes they work and sometimes they do not work. The vehicle has been to an independent service shop, who could not find anything wrong. No explanation given as to what the problem was. This still remained a problem. No repairs or corrections have been made. Updated 12/27/2005 - the four way flasher unit was replaced on 10/10/2005.
Turn signal and flasher would intermittently turn on, making it difficult for vehicles in the rear to see when driver needed to turn. Consumer will take vehicle to dealer for check up.
Turn signals failed to come on when applied. Consumer heard a sound while turning on the turn signals. Consumer took vehicle to the dealer for inspection, and mechanic determined that the signal light flasher unit needed to be replaced.

The consumers vehicle is a 1999 not covered in the recall. (recall # 03v327000). Tc.
While turning turn signal flasher light failed. Dealership was notified, but did not resolve the problem.
I own a 2000 Chevrolet Malibu and I am having the same problems with my turn signals as many others are as well. Gm had a recall on the 2000 Malibu but told me that my vehicle was not required to recieve a recall based on the VIN number but they would fix it for a fee. I think gm should fix mine since they already addressed the problem and it sounds sounds the same as the recall. I think this is a very serious problem that is very dangerous.
The turn signals / hazard flashers on my 2000 Chevrolet Malibu do not work properly. This is an important problem that could result in an accident. I reached my dealer who was helpful however they said they could not rectify this problem as the vehicle has not been recalled. I also saw an article in the 12/03 edition of consumer reports citing this issue. Please advise what is being done to correct this matter.
Recall 03v327000, concerning hazard warning switch. Intermittently turn signal will not work. A recall was issued for this problem, but consumer's vehicle was not included due to VIN.
Hazzard lights and turn signals work intermintently based on climate.
When you go to turn on the turn signals they do not work. They will work one minute and not the next. At times you have to turn on the four way flashers to get the signal to work and at times this does not alway help. I have had several near rear end misses because of this. It's a safety hazard!.
This will be the 4th time to take vehicle in for turn signal problems. I have to use my hazards to get my turn signal to work. Now neither one of them work. The first time I took it in they told me there was no way my hazards would make my turn signal work. This car is a piece of expensive junk. Not to mention the brakes have been replaced also.
Turn signals continue to fail and so does the emergency flashers on a daily basis. They just don't come on at all or some times they come on and then flash once and then they stop very dangerous. Dt.
Turn signals go out intermittently. Vehicle has not been examined by dealer.
Turn signals are occasionally not working. When they do work, all bulbs are functional. My wife first reported this to me the other day that they didn't function when she tried to use the turn signal from a stop sign. When I drove the vehicle, the turn signals appeared to function fine at first, then they failed to work when making a lane change. I then tried the emergency flashers momentarily, then the turn signals were functioning again after that time. There must be some sort of switch problem somewhere. I did not get an owners manual with the vehicle, so my investigation is limited to looking at the fuses in the fuse box.
Consumer noticed turn signal flasher froze, causing a buzzing sound.
Signal lights stopped working, brakes started vibrating and transmission is slipping. Mr.
