2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE Complaints

HEADLIGHTS FLICKER ON/ OFF AND GO DIM. DEALER WILL BE NOTIFIED. PLEASE AND MORE INFORMATION. *AK

HEADLIGHTS CONTINUALLY DIM AND BRIGHTEN WHILE DRIVING. TOOK CAR TO DEALER (DOWNTOWN OLDS, WARREN, OHIO) AND THEY SAID NOTHING WRONG COULD BE FOUND.)*AK

THE HEADLIGHTS FILCKER AT VARIOUS TIMES AND THIS ALTERNATOR HAS BEEN REPLACED 3 TIMES. THE DEALER HAS DONE ALL THAT THEY CAN, BUT THE ALTERNATOR FAILURE IS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE 3.5L ENGINE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT A MAJOR PROBLEM, BUT THE 'FLICKERING' HAS BECOME MORE REGULAR AND SEEMS TO HAPPENS FOR A LONGER DURATATION. I LOOK FORWARD TO A SOLUTION FROM GM ON THIS.

I HAVE HAD ALOT OF TROUBLE WITH THIS CAR. BUT THIS DID IT FOR ME. I WAS DRIVING I COULD NOT TURN MY WHEEL STRAIGHT I WAS GOING SIDEWAYS & SEEN TO PARKED CARS I HIT THEM ICOULD NOT STRAIGHTIN MY WHEEL MY AT ALL MY TIRE WAS SIDE WAYS PARTS UNDER MY CAR EVERYWHERE I WAS INJURED. *AK

WHILE BRAKES WERE APPLIED VEHICLE ACCELERATED FORWARD, CAUSING. A COLLISION. DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED .*AK

VEHICLE IS LEAKING OIL, AND WITHIN 3,000 MILES ALL OF THE OIL HAS COMPLETELY LEAKED OUT OF VEHICLE . DEALER CANNOT DETERMINE CAUSE. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS.*AK

THE HEADLIGHTS WILL "FLICKER" WHILE DRIVING, DOESN'T MATTER WHAT SPEED. THIS WAS REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHILE UNDER THE WARRANTY PERIOD. AT THAT TIME, THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT HE WAS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THAT THE ONLY THING THAT HE COULD DO WAS TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR, BUT DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD COMPLETELY CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED AND IT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL "AFTER MARKET" EQUIPMENT INSTALLED THAT COULD BE CAUSING A "STRAIN" ON THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.*AK

KNOWN TSB DOES NOT CORRECT PROBLEM. SAFETY ISSUE AS HEADLIGHTS DIM SUBSTANTIALLY. *AK

HEADLIGHTS DIM, CAUSING POOR VISION OF THE ROAD AHEAD. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN!!*AK

TRAVELING ON US 278 IN BLUFFTON, SC AT 8PM ON 11/23/2001. US 278 IS A DIVIDED 4 LANE HIGHWAY WITH LEFT EXITS. I AM IN THE LEFT LANE TRAVELING WEST AT 55MPH.
