Hazard Light Pushed in permanently I mean. I went to push it in one time as I pulled on to the shoulder and the thing with practically no pressure went right back behind the dash. I can still see it and touch it with my finger but can't get a grip on it. Was thinking of putting gum on the end of a pencil or something and trying to pull it back but even then it probably will just sit there rather then be mounted and functional. What should I do or can I do?

Cyber Knight is an unknown quantity at this point
Sounds like one or more of the 3 clips that hold the plastic piece around it may have broken and the whole thing fell in. Fish it out if you can and get a new piece. If you haven't had the recall repair done on that switch then you should get that done and let the dealership worry about it, they might give you a new piece for free.

Kicker,

I had this happen to me already. If you can, and are mechanically inclined, remove the two bolts holding your instrument cluster to the dash. Move it so you can reach up into the right side and push the switch back in. I did this, and the light snapped in solid. Looks like someone was in a rush, and didn't seat it right. I would try this first before taking it to the dealer. They seem to take forever. Hope this helps.
