It should be covered under the bumper to bumper warranty. Take it in.

Is it me, or do you guy's think that a common part like the turn signal should be one of those things that a dealer should have a few of in stock, and not the kind of think it would take them a week to order? If I took my Blazer to the dealership I would lay money that they proboably have about a dozen turnsignals just lying around... Hummm... not important.... Just got me thinkin.....

I agree with Wiggle. I don't know how pricey warehouse real estate is for dealerships, but there are times that it seems like they are keeping ZERO replacement inventory, and seem to prefer it that way. I had a problem with one of the windows on my Tib. I took it in, and they needed to order the guide rails for it, and said it'd be maybe 2 weeks. After 4 weeks, I still hadn't heard back from them on the part coming in, so I called to ask about it. They said that the part still wasn't in. I asked them to dig deeper and find out when it would be in, and as it turns out, the part HAD come in, hadn't been used in the time alloted that they will hold onto an ordered part, and had been returned! Unbelievable...

It depends on wether you can convince them that it's a defect and not wear and tear.
