1 Hazard Flashing Warning Light Switch problem

Failure Date: 08/21/2006

I have intermittently working turn signals. I have contacted my local dealer on numerous occasions. There is a recall on the hazard switch that affects the same year of manufacture products that have the same problem as me, intermittent turn signal loss. I have followed the advice of the dealership, that, when this occurs, lightly press the hazard switch, and then if the turn signal starts functioning, that means I have the same defective switch as the other affected make of chevy cars that are under recall. Well, lightly pressing the hazard switch does makes my turn signals function normally. According to a gm plant employee, my car has the same electrical components that the other cars under recall affected models have. Why is my car not considered "under recall"? the dealership will charge me to have it repaired, until this is a recall issue.
