Reported risk: THE HARDENED SELF-CANCELLING PAWL OF THE SIGNAL SWITCH CAN CAUSE A GROOVE TO BE WORN IN THE SWITCH CANCELLING RING OF THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS COULD CAUSE THE PAWL TO BIND WHILE THE SWITCH IS ENGAGED AND THE VEHICLE IS NEGOTIATING A TURN AT THE SAME TIME. THERE IS A POSSIBILIITY THAT THIS COULD RESULT IN INCREASED STEERING EFFORT AND THEREFORE ADVERSELY AFFECT THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE.
