3. Filed Oct 17, 2009Failure Oct 16, 2009Garden City, MIExterior lighting

   I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2000 GMC JIMMY ENVOY. I SMELLED BURNING PLASTIC AS I WAS DRIVING AND WAS TOLD BY ANOTHER MOTORIST THAT I HAD NO BRAKE LIGHTS. THE LIGHTS CAME ON AND STAYED ON AND THEN THEY WOULD NOT WORK. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP TO REPLACE THE TURN SIGNAL & HAZARD WARNING SWITCH. THIS CORRECTED THE BRAKE LIGHT PROBLEM. AFTER READING ABOUT THE REASON FOR THE RECALL OF THESE SWITCHES, I DISASSEMBLED THE OLD SWITCH ONLY TO FIND THAT IT ALSO HAD BRASS CONTACTS FOR THE HAZARD WARNING LAMPS. THIS WAS SUPPOSEDLY REPLACED IN 2003 BY A DEALER. REPLACING IT WITH THE SAME PART THAT WAS RECALLED! *TR
