What owners wrote
Dt*: the contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the turn signal light illuminated incorrectly when turning left, and vice versa. The signals also did not function at full brightness. The headlights dimmed and then increased back to regular illumination. The manufacturer was contacted who determined the problem was an isolated incident. The dealer was also notified. Updated 10/25/2006 - the turn signals remained dimly lit although the headlight were turned off.
When the key is out of the ignition,and the headlight switch is off, the parking lights come on and go off intermittently.sometimes I wake up to a dead battery.
