There are little springs on the switch that like to break. You can replace them and the switch should cancel again.

Yup. Two different GM vehicles. Same broken spring on the left (bottom) side.

The springs are a complementary pair - one is the exact opposite of the other. They are available at your GM dealership in bags of five pairs (part number escapes me) or sometimes at the "HELP!" section of an auto parts store.
