Details

What's wrong: The column switch levers can become loose or break over time.

Why it matters: Loosening or cracking of the levers can cause directional lamps that do not self-cancel or operate, head lamps that do not turn off, windshield washers that operate continuously and/or windshield wipers that do not operate.

The fix: Dealers will install a redesigned switch.
