LIGHTS FLICKER OFF AND OR DIM WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. BROUGHT CAR TO DEALER, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THIS SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY GM. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM.*AK

WITHOUT WARNING HEADLIGHTS FLICKER A FEW TIMES, RESULTING IN HEADLIGHTS DIMMING WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. DEALER HAS REPLACED ALTERNATOR, WHICH TEMPORARILY FIXED PROBLEM BUT PROBLEM HAS RESURFACED WITH SAME REGULARITY AS BEFORE. *NLM

TRANSMISSION WAS NOT RESPONDING WHEN I WOULD TRY TO ACCELERATE, AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT WOULD SLAM INTO GEAR. AFTER A FEW TIMES OF THIS THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SLIP WHEN CHANGING GEARS. I FIRST REPLACED THE FILTER AND FLUID AND NOTICED LARGE CHUNKS OF STEEL IN THE FILTER TRAY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, AND THEY SAID IT JUST NEED TO BE CLEANED. IT CONTINUED, SO I THEN TOOK IT TO A TRANSMISSION SHOP AND FOUND THE PINION GEAR HAD BROKE AND THEREFORE CAUSED MY GEARS TO BE STRIPED. COST TO ME WAS 2100.00 AND I WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THEY HAVE ACTUALLY DONE TRANSMISSION WORK FOR MY CAR DEALER AND THIS WAS ONE OF SEVERAL OLDS. WITH LOW MILEAGE THAT THIS HAD HAPPENED TO. *JB

THE INTERIOR/EXTERIOR LIGHTS FLICKERED. THEY CONTINUED TO GO DIM AND THEN ILLUMINATED. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICED THE VEHICLE 7 TIMES BUT WAS UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *JB
