My experience with a turn signal problem on my '02 VUE is related to the 4-way hazard switch. If I press lightly and fiddle around with the 4-way while the turn signal is set,

the turn signal will start blinking. I'm only guessing here, but I believe it's a problem with the location of the 4-way switch--being so close to the center air vent, that when AC runs and gets the switch extremely cold, humidity is wetting the switch so that it's corroding internally.

I've gotten temporary relief from the problem by juicing around the switch with electrical contact cleaner, and keeping a rag handy to wipe the excess as it flows out. Gets me a couple of days of working right.

I haven't gotten around to replacing the switch yet, but I believe that would fix the problem. At least until the new switch corrodes likewise. This is a design defect.

I hope Saturn engineers will take note.
