Burned Out Blinker

So today on my way to the mall, my front passenger side blinker burned out... Do you think this might be covered under warranty? Personally, I think it's BS if it isn't....bumper to bumper should cover EVERYTHING IMO.

I have no clue how I'd even get the old one apart to put a new one in...it looks confusing. Although I'm sure there is a thread here. Just wondered.

Hey Eric,

First for probably less than $2.00 your local parts store should have a 194 bulb! Turn your front wheel all the way inward! Take a thin blade screw driver and pop out the two plastic pins closest to the light! Reach in and twist the socket out, replace and re-install!

Pretty Easy,

A question and a rant before the question was answered. WOW.

Sorry, I'm really tired....


I still have an extended bumper to bumper warranty since I bought the car certified used.

It would be so much easier if Hayne's or Chilton made a manual for working on these cars... I have one for my other two, and use them all time wonder.

It may be covered, but is it worth your time for such a simple fix, not to mention is there a deductable?

My thoughts also! $2.00 and five minutes as opposed to at least an hour for free! Some people like the word free or sale .....

Well I had to order a part for my truck, so I'm going to be at the dealership anyways. So I won't be making a special trip or anything. Besides, I have nothing to do....
