I RECEIVED LETTER FROM GMC INFORMING OF A RECALL ON THE HAZARD FLASHING WARNING LIGHT (03V327000 OR GMC # 03043. I WAS ALREADY EXPERIENCING ISSUES AT THAT TIME THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD HAVE TO BE COMPLETELY INOPERABLE TO BE REPLACED. IT IS NOW INOPERABLE AND I HAVE NOW BEEN INFORMED THAT MY VIN # FALLS OUTSIDE OF THE RECALL. HOW IS IT DETERMINED WHICH VIN'S ARE EFFECTED? IS THERE ANY WAY TO REINVESTIGATE THE EFFECTED VIN'S? I WOULD LIKE TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE BEFORE THE CAR IS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND NOT AFTER. THANK YOU. *TR
