I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE IN FEB. OF 2000 BRAND NEW. STARTING LAST SUMMER, I NOTICED A CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE STEREO AREA OF MY VEHICLE. THE NOISE SEEMS TO COME FROM THE HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS SWITCH LOCATED JUST ABOVE MY RADIO. SINCE THE SWITCH STILL WORKED, I FIGURED IT WAS SOMETHING PHYSICAL THAT WAS LOOSE BEHIND THE MOLDING. THIS SUMMER, WHEN THE TEMPERATURE GOT EXTREME HOT IN THE MONTHS OF JUNE AND JULY, THE CLICKING STARTED AGAIN. I THEN NOTICED ANOTHER PROBLEM. SOMETIMES MY TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS DO NOT WORK. I WILL HAVE TO HIT THE HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS BUTTON A FEW TIMES TO GET MY TURN SIGNALS TO WORK. I WAS GOING TO HAVE AN ESTIMATE FOR THE COST OF REPLACEMENT, BUT FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THESE INCIDENTS. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID IS 03V327000. READING THE RECALL NOTICE SHOWS THAT MY CAR IS SHOWING THE SAME PROBLEMS. THE PROBLEMS WITH THE TURN SIGNAL DID NOT START UNTIL THE HOT SUMMER MONTHS OF JUNE AND JULY (THEY CONTINUE EVERY SO OFTEN AS OF THIS COMPLAINT). I CALLED THE GM CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE NUMBER AND GAVE THEM MY VIN. TOYNICIA JACKSON ANSWERED AND SAID I SHOULD REFERENCE CASE 1-238622769. SHE WAS VERY HELPFUL BUT SAID THE REASON I DID NOT GET A RECALL NOTICE WAS BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED. EVEN THOUGH IT IS A 2000 PONTIAC GRAND AM, SHE SAID THAT IT COULD HAVE HAD DIFFERENT PARTS USED. I PLAN ON SENDING INFORMATION TO GM/PONTIAC AS WELL ABOUT THIS ISSUE.

This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, customers should remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the ignition key. The key fob (if applicable), should also be removed from the key ring. General Motors LLC (GM) notified the agency on July 3, 2014, that they are recalling 5,877,718 model year 2000-2005 Chevrolet Impala and Monte Carlo, 1997-2003 Chevrolet Malibu, 2004-2005 Malibu Classic, 1999-2004 Oldsmobile Alero, 1998-2002 Oldsmobile Intrigue, 1999-2005 Pontiac Grand Am and 2004-2008 Pontiac Grand Prix vehicles. In these models, the weight on the key ring and/or road conditions or some other jarring event may cause the ignition switch to move out of the run position, turning off the engine.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the key is not in the run position, the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will install two key rings and an insert in the key slot or a cover over the key head on all ignition keys, free of charge. The recall began on September 9, 2014. GM's number for this recall is 14350.
CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES HAVE HAZARD WARNING SWITCHES THAT MAY EXPERIENCE SOLDER JOINT CRACKING CAUSED BY RAPID TEMPERATURE TRANSITIONS AND THE SOLDERING PROCESS. IF SOLDER JOINT CRACKING OCCURS AND RESULTS IN AN OPEN CIRCUIT, THE TURN SIGNALS/HAZARD LAMPS BECOME INTERMITTENT OR INOPERATIVE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: WHEN THE TURN SIGNALS ARE INOPERATIVE, THE DRIVER CANNOT USE THEM TO SIGNAL INTENT TO TURN THAT COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE HAZARD WARNING SWITCH. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 5, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, PONTIAC AT 1-800-620-7668, OR OLDSMOBILE AT 1-800-630-6537.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH MANUAL TRANSAXLES (RPO M86) FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 114, "THEFT PROTECTION." WHEN A DRIVER ATTEMPTS TO SHIFT FROM 5TH GEAR TO REVERSE, A SHIFT INHIBITOR CAUSES THE TRANSMISSION TO BE MECHANICALLY IN 4TH GEAR EVEN THOUGH THE SHIFT LEVER INDICATES REVERSE GEAR.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IN THIS SITUATION, THE KEY CAN BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION WHILE THE TRANSMISSION IS IN A FORWARD GEAR, WHICH IS NOT PERMITTED BY THE STANDARD.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL DISABLE THE 5TH/REVERSE INHIBITOR BY REMOVING A RETAINING PIN AND REPLACE THE SHIFTER ASSEMBLY.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: THESE VEHICLES DO NOT COMPLY WITH THE OCCUPANT PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 201, "OCCUPANT PROTECTION IN INTERIOR IMPACT." THE CONSOLE COVER ON THESE VEHICLES DOES NOT STAY CLOSED WHEN A SPECIFIED VERTICAL LOAD IS APPLIED.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE CONSOLE COVER COULD OPEN AND THE COVER OR ITEMS STORED UNDER IT COULD INJURE AN OCCUPANT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE CONSOLE LATCH MECHANISM.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES. THE BOLT THAT ATTACHES THE REAR SUSPENSION TRAILING ARM TO THE LEFT REAR KNUCKLE MAY NOT HAVE BEEN TIGHTENED TO SPECIFICATIONS DURING ASSEMBLY.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THE BOLT COULD BACK COMPLETELY OUT OF THE JOINT AFFECTING VEHICLE CONTROL.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL TIGHTEN THIS BOLT.
