Hazard

In the lighting system, the operating relay within the emergency flasher switch unit may have contact spacing that is too narrow due to manufacturing defects. Sparking can occur between the relay contacts, causing them to stick. As a result, the emergency flasher and direction indicator may remain continuously illuminated and fail to flash.
