I have the same problem with my 2002 vw new Beetle as in pe 04073: turn signal/hazard flasher failure: exterior lighting:turn signal:flasher unit. The flasher does not work consistently: it starts, then stops after one or two blinks. The timing of the blinks are also erratic. My model needs to be covered by this recall.

Many problems/failures between 10600 and 19000 miles. Dashboard left turn signal indicator intermittent failure persists for >1 year and devonhills vw refuses to fix the problem because it would be expensive for them (in the mean time, the light is useless since half the time it is on, half off).
