ignition switch ?
Ok, a few months ago my car started running strange. In the afternoons the turn signals wouldn't work. So I'd hit the hazards and they'd start working. Then one morning I used my turn signal to change lanes and the car stalled. Then it started to stall more often. Every couple of time when I'd go to start it up the dash lights would flicker and it would not start or it would say reduced power and start.
I just got done paying off the car and now this. I really don't want to get in to car payments again. I hope I described the problem good enough. Any help would be great.
Oh by the way there are more issues with my car but I'll address them later. Thanks again.
