What is wrong

Certain passenger vehicles have a condition in which the turn signal lamp and daytime running lamp (drl) on either front side can stop working because of loss of contact between the bulb and socket.

The risk

If a front turn signal lamp is inoperative, others may react more slowly to a turning vehicle and a crash could occur.

The fix

Dealers will replace the drl/turn signal bulb on both the left and right front side and inspect for and add a drl jumper kit if not present. The recall began november 17, 2004. Owners should contact saturn at 1-[removed].
