The contact owns a 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 3500. While driving at various speeds, the rear passenger side turn signal failed without warning. The failure recurred four times. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the rear passenger side socket failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 79,000.
