Are you referring to your turn signals? Then yes there is a common problem with them, see the red triangle above the radio? Thats the hazard/blinker relay, they commonly short out causing the turn signals to work intermittently.

Buy a new "Hazard Switch" for a mere $22 http://www.genuineaudiparts.com/. Carefully pry off the woodgrain panel surrounding the hazard flasher switch, push in the tabs on the old switch & pull it out, disconnect the plug on the back of the switch. Should take 10 minutes (45 minutes with a beer break!)

The hazard lights seem to still work fine. Could this hazard switch still be shorting out the turn signals?

I too had the same issue. I used a wide blade putty knife to pry out the panel and it worked well. I didn't see the need to pull the radio. This is absolutely a job that you can do and save a bunch vs. having the dealer do it.

Since the radio takes a whopping 5 seconds to pull out i don't see why it would be a hinderance, but whatever floats your boat. Here is a pic of the radio tools which you ALL should have.
