TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER AND AN ABNORMAL WHINING AND GRINDING NOISE WAS HEARD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS NOT WORKING WENT OUT AND BOUGHT NEW HEADLIGHTS AND THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM, AND ALSO BLINKERS TO NOT FLASH FROM OUTSIDE OF CAR, ALSO WENT OUT AND BOUGHT BULBS THIS WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY RELATED DEFECT. THE INTERGRATED POWER MODULE 2006 CHRYSLER OR CRUISER CONTROLS HEADLIGHTS BLINKER IT CAN ONLY BE RESET BY DEALERSHIP OR REPLACE. I LOOKED UP F33 IT WAS A RECALL FOR DIRECTION SIGNAL BULB FICTION. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUES AND SHOULD HAVE A RECALL. PLEASE HELP I NEED TO DRIVE MY CAR. THANK YOU
