2001 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE Exterior Lighting Problems

TAKATA RECALL WHILE DRIVING MY LIGHTS WERE DIMMING WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. MY CAR CUT OFF ON ME TWICE. THE FIRST TIME IT CUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND THE SECOND TIME IT CUT OFF WHILE I WAS AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. SOMETIME THE CAR WON'T START. AFTER THE THIRD OR FORTH ATTEMPT THE CAR WILL START. MY GAS PEDAL IS STICKING NOW THIS JUST START HAPPENING. SOMETIMES I HAVE A TIME TRYING TO PUT THE WINDOWS DOWN. I HAVE TO JIGGLE WITH THE SWITCH A FEW TIMES IN ORDER FOR THE WINDOW ON DRIVER SIDE TO GO DOWN. I HAD TWO CRANK SENSORS AND ONE CAM SENSOR PUT ON MY VEHICLE. I AM STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE. I HAD THE VEHICLE THOROUGHLY CHECKED BY A MECHANIC AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

IN THE PAST FEW YEARS, MY 2001 OLDS INTRIGUE HAS BEEN HAVING NUMEROUS ISSUES. AT FIRST, I THOUGHT IT MAY JUST BE MY CAR, BUT AFTER MUCH RESEARCH, I'M FINDING THAT ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE ALSO HAPPENING TO MANY OTHERS. THE FIRST THING THAT I NOTICED WAS THE RANDOM DIMMING OF MY HEADLIGHTS WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE CHECKED MY LIGHTS, BATTERY CABLES, AND ALTERNATOR. ALL ARE FINE. THE NEXT ISSUE IS THAT MY BLINKERS SOMETIMES WORK AND SOMETIMES DON'T. THIS IS VERY DISCONCERTING AND MOST DANGEROUS WHEN TAKING MY CHILD TO AND FROM SCHOOL, WHEN STREETS ARE BUSY AND SIGNALS ARE NECESSARY! THIRDLY, ABOUT 3/4 OF THE TIME WHILE STOPPED, MY CAR IDLES VERY HIGH! I ASSUME THIS MAY BE DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE ENGINE SOON, AND SERVICE VEHICLE SOON LIGHTS ARE ALL ON. ALL HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT IT'S A WIRING ISSUE THAT IS COMMON IN INTRIGUES. LAST BUT NOT LEAST, IT HAS BECOME A RATHER CONSISTANT PROBLEM THAT MY CAR DOESN'T WANT TO START. SOMETIMES IT STARTS UP JUST FINE, BUT USUSALLY I HAVE TO TRY 2-4 TIMES. I TURN OFF ALL ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS UNDER MY CONTROL, IN MY CAR PRIOR STARTING, BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE. AS MY RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THIS MAY BE DUE TO A FAULTY IGNITON SWITCH. MANY OTHER GM MAKES AND MODELS HAVE HAD RECALLS AND COMPLAINTS ON ALL OF THESE ISSUES, YET NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE FOR THIS PARTICULAR MODEL. SAFETY SHOULD BE THE NUMBER ONE CONCERN HERE, BUT OBVIOUSLY IT IS NOT. WHY DO SOME CARS GET RECALLS AND OTHERS NOT, WHEN THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE SAME PARTS USED? IT DOESN'T QUITE ADD UP. PLEASE GM, TAKE CARE OF YOUR CARS AND DRIVERS, AND MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE IN YOUR HANDS IS SAFE ON THE ROAD!! THAT IS AFTERALL, YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!!!!

DRIVING ANYWHERE DAY OR NIGHT AT ANY GIVEN SPEED, RADIO GOES IN AND OUT, TURN SIGNAL WORK ON AND OFF AT RANDOM MOMENTS, HEADLIGHTS WILL DIM FOR NO REASON, INTERIOR DASH LIGHTS DIM FOR NO REASON. ALSO WILL OCCASIONALLY CAUSE CAR TO STALL FOR NO REASON. HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER BY LAW ENFORCEMENT SEVERAL TIMES AND WARNED ABOUT NOT USING TURN SIGNALS WHEN I DID, BUT CAR HAS NEVER WORKED PROPERLY. I INFORM THEM OF THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE REPEATEDLY MADE TO GM TO RESOLVE AND HAVE BEEN REPEATEDLY IGNORED BY GM. I USUALLY AM LET OFF WITH WARNING. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS VERY ISSUE AND YET NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO RESOLVE IT. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND EVENTUALLY WILL LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT DUE TO GM NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR DEFECTS. IT ALSO AFFECTS EXTERIOR LIGHTING. HEATED SEATS BUTTON GOES IN AND OUT WITH THESE SAME PROBLEMS AND AIR BAGS DO NOT WORK AT ALL.

THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WITHIN MY TURN SIGNALS IS ERRATIC. ONE MOMENT THE TURN SIGNAL WORKS, THE NEXT MOMENT IT DOESN'T. THIS MAKES FOR A DIFFICULT COMMUTE. THERE IS A CURRENT SAFETY RECALL PERTAINING TO VEHICLES MADE BY GM DURING THE TIME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS BUILT BUT MY VEHICLE ISN'T COVERED UNDER THE RECALL, DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE IS SUFFERING FROM THE SAME PROBLEMS AS THE GM VEHICLES INCLUDED IN THE SAFETY RECALL. THE RECALL STATES THAT THERE WAS FAULTY SODDERING AT FAULT IN THE CASE OF THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES. I HAVE ATTACHED THE URL FOR THE RECALL: HTTP://WWW-ODI.NHTSA.DOT.GOV/CARS/PROBLEMS/DEFECT/RESULTS.CFM?ACTION_NUMBER=EA02037&SEARCHTYPE=QUICKSEARCH&SUMMARY=TRUE THANK YOU *TR

FRAUDULENT VEHICLE INSPECTION & EMISSIONS DONE ON A REGARDING 2001 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE, PURCHASE DATE, MARCH 17, 2014. I HAVE BEEN BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THEIR APPROVED SHOPS AND MY USUAL MECHANIC TAKING AN EXCESSIVE TIME FROM WORK TO TRY TO GET THE REPAIRS DONE. THE CAR WAS FOUND TO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE FUEL DISTRIBUTION, THE FRONT TURN SIGNALS AREN'T FIRING WHICH WILL REQUIRE A REPLACEMENT HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY, AND I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE GAS GAUGE SENSOR MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE OIL LIGHT & CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS ARE ALSO ON. ALL THESE THINGS I WAS ASSURED WOULD BE REPAIRED BY [XXX], THE SALESPERSON. HE STATED THE INSPECTION FACILITY, PA STATION ID#[XXX], HAS BEEN SENDING THE VEHICLES TO THEM PARTIALLY INSPECTED AND THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THIS VEHICLE "INSPECTION" WAS ON 3/4/14,AND I BELIEVE THIS SHOP, AND OTHERS LIKE IT, ARE KNOWINGLY DEFRAUDING CONSUMERS OF THIS ESTABLISHMENT.

I PURCHASED A 2001 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE USED IN FEBRUARY 2004. AFTER USING THE HAZARD LIGHTS IN AUGUST 2004, THERE HAVE BEEN PROBLEMS WITH BOTH THE TURN SIGNALS AND THE HAZARD LIGHTS. THE HAZARD LIGHTS WILL NOT WORK AT ALL ANYMORE WITHOUT CONTINUOUSLY HOLDING THE BUTTON IN MANUALLY. THE TURN SIGNALS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. THEY WILL WORK FINE FOR A WHILE, AND THEN COMPLETELY STOP. THIS OCCURS ON ALMOST A DAILY BASIS. THE ONLY WAY TO CORRECT IT IS TO REPEATEDLY PRESS THE HAZARD LIGHT SWITCH OVER AND OVER WHICH CONFUSES OTHER DRIVERS AND TAKES ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE ROAD. THIS IS A MAJOR HAZARD WHEN TRYING TO TURN FROM BUSY STREETS. WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND A NEW HAZARD SWITCH FOR THE VEHICLE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE TURN SIGNAL SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, HE NOTICED THAT THE SIGNAL WOULD STOP WORKING OCCASIONALLY. HOWEVER, THE FAILURE IS CURRENTLY MORE PERSISTENT. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALER. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 66,116 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

THE DIRECTIONAL SIGNALS AND OR HAZARD LIGHTS DO NOT WORK. IT IS NOT A CONTINUOUS THING BUT A SPORADIC. I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET GO TO TURN ON MY DIRECTIONAL (EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT) AND IT WILL NOT WORK. I CAN THEN GET TO MY NEXT TURN AND THEY MIGHT WORK. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS SPORADICALLY FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS NOW AND CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY KIND OF RECALL FOR THIS. I FOUND A RECALL BACK IN 2003 & 2004 FOR THE OLDSMOBILE ALERO, GRAND AM AND MALIBU, BUT NOT FOR THE OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. I WAS WONDERING IF THERE ARE OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR THE OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE HAVING THIS FAILURE. THE LAST INCIDENT WAS SEPT. 12, 2008. BEFORE THAT DATE I NEVER KEPT TRACK, BUT NOW AM TIRED OF THE SIGNALS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I WAIT FOR THE DAY THE SIGNALS DO NOT WORK AND CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT BECAUSE SOMEONE THINKS THAT I AM GOING STRAIGHT AT AN INTERSECTION AND AM ACTUALLY INTENDING ON TURNING. *TR

TWO CAR CRASHES - ONE AT ~35MPH COLLIDING WITH A TREE (IN LATE 2006) NEARLY HEAD-ON AND A SECOND (JANUARY 21ST, 2008) AT ~65MPH COLLIDING WITH AN INTERSTATE GUARD RAIL ALSO NEARLY HEAD-ON - NEITHER OF WHICH TRIGGERED A DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAGS OF THE VEHICLE. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OF THE VEHICLE IS QUESTIONABLE AS THE CAR EXPERIENCED FLASHES OF THE HEADLIGHTS, TEMPORARY FAILURE OF THE INTERIOR LIGHTS, AND OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES BEFORE THE MOST RECENT ACCIDENT. *TR

I OWN A 2001 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE AND I AM EXPERIENCING A FAMILIAR PROBLEM WITH MY TURN SIGNALS AS DESCRIBED IN NHTSA ACTION NUMBER EA02037. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THIS PROBLEM VIA OLDSMOBILE OWNER FORUMS ON THE INTERNET AND HAVE SEEN OTHER OWNERS OF THE INTRIGUE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM INTERESTED TO KNOW WHY GM DIDN'T ISSUE A RECALL TO REPAIR/REPLACE THESE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ON THESE VEHICLES AS WELL AS THE ONES LISTED ON THE NHTSA ACTION NUMBER? *TR

CLUNKING IN STEERING WHEEL, FIXED MORE THAN ONCE. WAS TOLD IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT WOULD ONLY REPLACE ON THE THIRD COMPLAINT, AT WHICH TIME CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. ALSO HEADLIGHTS WILL DIM AND STRENGTHEN AT NIGHT. *TR

TURN SIGNAL FAILURE ON A DAILY BASIS. I DRIVE ON A HIGHWAY 80 MILES A DAY. THE TURN SIGNALS MAY BLINK RAPIDLY, NORMALLY, OR NOT WORK AT ALL. THIS CAN ALL OCCUR WITHIN A FEW MILES. HOWEVER, WHEN I TOOK THEM TO A REPAIR SHOP, THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR. I HAVE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE AIR PUMP THAT PUMPS AIR INTO THE EMISSIONS SYSTEM TWICE, AND IT IS STILL HAVING PROBLEMS. THE CAR RUNS FINE, BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON ALL THE TIME. I ALSO HAVE THE PROBLEM WITH THE DIMMING LIGHTS WHICH IS CAUSED BY THE AIR PUMP SWITCHING ON AND OFF. *NM

1. LOOSE DASHBOARD CAUSING PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG TO RATTLE AND THE COVER TO LIFT ABOVE THE DASHBOARD. THIS COULD LEAD TO DEPLOYMENT AT ANYTIME OF THE AIRBAG. 2. TURNING SIGNAL FAILS TO BLINK ON EXTERIOR LIGHTS WHEN ENGAGED, USUALLY ABOUT TWICE A DAY. THIS COULD LEAD TO ME GETTING A TICKET OR INTO AN ACCIDENT IN WHICH CASE THE AIRBAG WOULD STILL BE AN ISSUE. 3. HEADLIGHTS AND INTERIOR LIGHTS FLICKER AND DIM AT NIGHT. 4. THE TRANSMISSION JUMPS AT CERTAIN TIMES, USUALLY WHEN THE CAR IS JUST STARTED AND INSTANTLY PUT INTO GEAR. THERE HAS BEEN NO ACTION TO FIX THE AIR BAG, LIGHTS OR TRANSMISSION. THE TURNING SIGNAL, HOWEVER, I HAVE CHECKED THE WIRING FOR BURNS AND OTHER PROBLEMS BUT HAVE FOUND NONE. *NM

FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR THE TURN SIGNALS WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY. SOME TIMES THEY WILL FLASH RAPIDLY LIKE I NEED TO REPLACE A BULB. HOWEVER, MORE AND MORE THEY JUST DON'T WORK AT ALL. THEY WILL WORK MOST OF THE TIME WHEN I FIRST TURN ON THE CAR IN THE MORNING, AFTER THAT IT IS HIT OR MISS. THEY USE TO WORK MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, AND NOW THEY WORK LESS THAN THEY DON'T. I HAVE TAKEN IT FOR SERVICE AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG. I HAVE CLEANED/REPLACED THE FUSE (NO.8) IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND CLEANED THE TERMINAL. I HAVE REPLACED EVERY BULB. I HAD A '99 OLDS DELTA 88 THAT DID THE SAME THING BEFORE I TRADED IT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY IF TURNING IN FRONT OF ANOTHER CAR AT A STOP SIGN. I HAVE TO USE HAND SIGNALS AND MANY YOUNGER DRIVERS HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY MEAN. THIS IS A FAMILY OWNED VEHICLE. I PURCHASED IT FROM MY MOTHER AFTER DRIVING IT FOR ABOUT A YEAR. SHE PURCHASED IT NEW FROM THE DEALERSHIP. *NM

HEADLIGHTS FLICKER - UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES(MORE OFTEN IN COLD WEATHER) THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE CAR "FLICKER" AS IF I WERE FLASHING MY HIGH BEAMS OR TURN MY LIGHTS OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN. DOESN'T REALLY SOUND LIKE A BIG ISSUE....RIGHT. WELL, THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT AFTER THE DEALER REFUSED TO CONTINUE TO REPLACE ALTERNATORS IN MY CAR BECAUSE THIS WAS A "KNOWN ISSUE" WITH OLDSMOBILE. IF YOU SEARCH ON GOOGLE OR ANY OTHER SEARCH ENGINE YOU CAN FIND THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. BACK TO THE SAFETY ISSUE... I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS A BIG DEAL WHEN THE DEAL TOLD ME THEY WOULDN'T TRY TO FIX IT ANYMORE, BIG DEAL - MY HEADLIGHTS FLICKER. IT WASN'T A BIG DEAL UNTIL LAST WEEK WHEN DRIVING ALONG AND A CAR WAS WAITING TO PULL OUT ON THE 55 MPH ROAD I WAS TRAVELING ON. JUST THEN, MY HEADLIGHTS DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO FLICKER AND THE CAR THOUGHT I WAS SIGNALING FOR THEM TO PULL OUT IN FRONT O F ME. I BARELY HAD TIME TO SLOW DOWN AND HAD TO PULL SOMEWHAT OFF THE ROAD TO AVOID HITTING THEM. WITH MY ONE YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE CAR, I DECIDED I AM GOING TO SEE WHAT I CAN DO ABOUT GETTING THIS ISSUE FIXED. *NM

I HAVE ALMOST HAD MY CAR A WHOLE 2 WEEKS . I HAVE NOTICED THE LIGHTS, DASH AND HEAD LIGHTS, FLICKERING. I CALLED DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM, AND ALL I GOT WAS A GUY THAT TOLD ME IT WAS IN THE INTRIGUES NATURE TO DO THAT . THE FLICKERING IS HAPPENING WHEN THE AIR PUMP IS CYCLING ON AND OFF HE SAID, AGAIN, ITS JUST IN THE INTRIGUES NATURE. IN ITS NATURE OR NOT ITS NOT SAFE ! I HAVE A 4 YEAR OLD AND I CAN'T AVOID DRIVING AT NIGHT JUST BECAUSE A CAR HAS A DEFECT ! AND TO TOP IT OFF NO ONE WANTS TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT !! *AK

THE HEADLIGHTS FLICKERED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THIS PROBLEMS CAUSED THE CRUISE CONTROL TO DEACTIVATE BY ITSELF WHILE ENGAGED, AND TURNED OFF THE AIR CONDITIONER OR THE HEATER WHEN OPERATING. VEHICLE HAD BEEN TO THE DEALER ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. THE DEALER REPLACED SEVERAL PARTS, AND PROBLEM RECURRED. *AK

THE HEADLIGHTS DIM AND THEN RETURN TO THE NORMAL BRIGHTNESS ON MY 2001 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHETHER THE LIGHTS ARE ON DIM OR BRIGHT. OTHER LIGHTS INSIDE THE CAR ARE NOT AFFECTED; THE PROBLEM IS ONLY WITH THE HEADLIGHTS. IT'S ALMOST AS IF THEY ARE GOING TO FLASH OFF FOR A SECOND, BUT IT'S MORE OF A DIMMING ACTION. IT'S FRUSTRATION THOUGH, BECAUSE ON-COMING TRAFFIC FLASHES THEIR HEADLIGHTS ON BRIGHT BECAUSE THEY THINK YOU ARE DOING THE SAME TO THEM. GM NEEDS TO PROVIDE A FIX TO THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THIS HEADLIGHT PROBLEM CAUSES SOMEONE TO BE THE VICTIM OF ROAD RAGE. *LA
