The present invention relates to a stalk switch assembly (1) with a controllable releasing mechanism (5), in particular for controlling turn-signal lights of an automotive vehicle, comprising a support (2), an activating rod (3) disposed pivotably about a first axis (A) within the support (2) and mechanically coupled with an electric signal device, and a self-returning mechanism (4) defining neutral position (46) and at least two locked positions (45) of the activating rod (3). Said controllable releasing mechanism (5) comprises a guiding member (51) defined by the activating rod (3) within the support (2); a yoke (53) disposed slidably within said guiding member (51) along a second axis (B) corresponding to the axis of the activating rod (3) passing through the first axis (A); two levers (52) disposed in a plane substantially perpendicular to the first axis (A) between said guiding member (51) and said yoke (53), inclined to each other and having first ends (521) distal to each other, which are slidably disposed within said guiding member (51), and second ends (522) adjacent to each other, which are disposed within said yoke (53); a releasing member (54) disposed slidably within the support (2) along a third axis (C), corresponding to said second axis (B) in neutral position of the activating rod (3), and adjoining said yoke (53); a controllable actuator (55) provided with a stem (551) connected with said releasing member (54); and two retaining surfaces (57) defined by the support (2) to provide abutment for said first ends of said levers (52) in the locked positions of the activating rod (3). This creates an effective kinematic chain yielding a relatively long displacement of the first (521) end of the unlocking lever (52) with regard to a relatively short stroke of the actuator stem (551) upon activation.
