two small problems
So I've been having some weird issues with the 'ho... Wondering if anyone else has had the same and if they know how to fix them.
1. Sunroof has dirt and junk in the tracks so it makes weird noises when opening/closing... just wondering what solution you'd use to clean it or if there's some sort of lubricant that goes in there.
2. Turn signals have a mind of their own. I'm cruising around and everything works fine. Then I go to signal and both left and right blink in the middle of the cluster really fast and then the signals quit working. After a few minutes they work fine again.

My turn signal unit (I forget the more precise name) did the same. I had it replaced under warranty.

i think that may be associated with the hazard light recall done on most of the vehicles. Look into it. As for the sunroof track i would just clean it with brake cleaner and q tips. I use brake cleaner for everything, its amazing. Then maybe a light coat of wd40 to lube it?

hazard switch is a recall as it could potentially be life threatening
