What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2000 chevrolet monte carlo ss. The contact stated that while driving 65 MPH, the engine stalled and the steering wheel became difficult to turn. The contact was able to merge to side of road and restarted the vehicle. The problem occurred numerous times. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic. The technician diagnosed that the ignition switch failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired.
Just purchased the car, drove him with no problems, went for another drive right after the blinkers inside nor outside the car would work, they at times would work after this then just not work again, after doing research about this problem I learned the hazzard switch was the problem and making the blinkers not work at times, I roach the hazzard switch now the blinkers are just fine.
