2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue Complaint Log

Vehicle shut off while driving. Car won’t start or crank now. IGNITION SWITCH . SECURITY SYSTEM FAILURE

TROUBLE STARTING THE CAR ON OCCASION, "MISFIRING" ON OCCASION AND OUTRIGHT NO STARTING LED US TO HAVE THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR, STARTER AND CAMSHAFT SENSOR (TWICE) REPLACED, AT A COST OF OVER $900.00. FURTHER WE RESPONDED TO RECALL N140350 "UNINTENDED IGNITION KEY ROTATION". THE DEALER REPLACED A RUBBER RING IN THE KEY TO STOP THE WEIGHT OF THE KEYS FROM TURNING THE IGNITION OFF. (I THINK?) AFTER ALL THAT THE CAR DOES START BUT OCCASIONALLY ON THE HIGHWAY IT WILL STOP RUNNING, WITH NO OTHER NOTICEABLE PROBLEMS. WE WOULD PULL OVER (NOT ALWAYS EASY TO DO IN A HIGHWAY!) AND THE CAR WOULD START UP IMMEDIATELY. SADLY THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS. WE ARE AFRAID TO USE OUR CAR, WHICH IS A 52,000 MILE BEAUTY BUT TOO DANGEROUS UNDER THESE CONDITIONS.

SECURITY LIGHT HAD BEEN COMING ON AND OFF FOR A FEW DAYS. I STOPPED AT A CARD LOCK PETROLEUM STATION FOR GAS I WENT TO START CAR AND NOTHING,ENGINE DIDN'T EVEN TURN OVER. A LOCAL FARMER GAVE ME A JUMP, STILL NOTHING. I USED HIS CELLPHONE TO CALL A MECHANIC FRIEND OF MINE,HE TOLD ME IT TO WAIT 15 MINUTES AND TRY AGAIN. HE SAID IF IT STILL DIDN'T START THAT I WOULD HAVE TO RESET IT AND SO I WROTE DOWN THE INSTRUCTIONS SAID THANK YOU TO THE GENTLEMAN FOR THE USE OF HIS PHONE. I WAITED STILL NOTHING. I PERFORMED THE PROCEDURE TURNING THE IGNITION ON FOR TEN MINUTES OFF FOR 5 SECONDS AND REPEAT AND SO ON. I LIVE IN NORTH DAKOTA THIS WAS IN JANUARY AND IT WAS BELOW ZERO. I PUT ON A PAIR OF INSULATED OVERALLS AND A FULL LENGTH WW II NAVY PEA COAT. I WAS GETTING SCARED, IT WAS NOW DARK AND I HADN'T SEEN ANYONE SINCE THE FARMER. I WAS REALLY GETTING COLD, MY HANDS, FEET NOSE AND EARS WERE STARTING TO ACHE A LITTLE. I SPENT ANOTHER 3.5 HOURS TRYING TO START MY CAR. THANK GOD A COUPLE STOPPED FOR GAS OR I WOULDN'T HAVE SURVIVED .BY THEN I WAS REALLY WORRIED ABOUT MY FEET I NEW THEY WERE FROSTBITE. I WAS VERY LUCKY I STILL HAVE ALL TEN TOES. WHEN I FOUND OUT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR GM CARS AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN LEFT STRANDED AND NO ONE HAS ADDRESSED IT, I WAS IN WAS IN TOTAL DISBELIEF. GENERAL MOTORS EMPLOYEES CEO TO SALES TO MR.GOODWRENCH SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEIR NEGLECT. *TR

THE CRANK SENSOR, IGNITION LOCK CYLINDER, AND CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *JB

MY HEADLIGHTS FLICKER AND DIM WHICH IS DANGEROUS DURING NIGH TIME DRIVING, SO I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE WHEN ITS DARK OUT. ALSO MY BLINKERS WORK OFF AND ON. I FEEL GM SHOULD COVER A RECALL ON THESE PROBLEMS.

2002 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE IGNITION AND SEEKS REIMBURSEMENT. *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE IGNITION CYLINDER WAS REPLACED TWO YEARS AGO. *JB

2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE WON'T START, SECURITY LIGHT FLASHES. WAIT 10-15 MINUTES AND CAR STARTS. THIS HAPPENS EVERY 2 WEEKS AND ABOVE 30 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR USED 1 YEAR AGO AND LAST OCCURRENCE WAS 4/7/2011. A RECALL SHOULD BE MADE FOR THIS. *TR

MY BLINKERS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE (FRONT AND BACK) BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION AND WOULD ONLY WORK INTERMITTENTLY IN 2010. THIS WENT ON FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND THEN THE PASSENGER SIDE BLINKERS (FRONT AND BACK) BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION IN THE SAME MANNER ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER. THIS WENT ON WITH BOTH SIDES WORKING ONLY INTERMITTENTLY FOR 2 YEARS. THEN, SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND TRYING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN IN MID 2012, THE PASSENGER SIDE BLINKER STARTED MAKING VERY LOUD ELECTRICAL GLITCH SOUNDS AND THEN COMPLETELY BLEW AND MY CAR DIED WITH IT. I HAD TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR SHORTLY AFTER AND THE PASSENGER SIDE BLINKERS WORKED PERFECTLY, BUT I HAD TO DRIVE WITH OUT MY DRIVER'S SIDE BLINKERS UNTIL MID 2013, WHEN I COULD NOT PASS DMV REQUIRED INSPECTION. I PAID TO HAVE THE DRIVER'S SIDE BLINKER RELAY SYSTEM REPLACED AND IT WORKED FOR ABOUT A MONTH BUT THEN BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE BLINKERS STARTED WORKING INTERMITTENTLY AGAIN. WITHIN 1 MONTH, THE DRIVER'S SIDE BLINKER RELAY SYSTEM COMPLETELY FAILED AGAIN (PASSENGER WORKS, EXCEPT I HAVE TO WIGGLE AND MESS WITH THE EMERGENCY HAZARDS LIGHTS TO GET IT TO EVEN TURN ON AT ALL). NOW I HAVE ONE PAIR OF BLINKERS NOT WORKING AT ALL, AND ONE THAT IS INTERMITTENT, 3/4 OF THE TIME IT WORKS BUT ONLY IF I DISTRACTEDLY WIGGLE MY HAZARD LIGHT BUTTON WHILE TRYING TO TURN OR CHANGE LANES. MECHANICS ARE BAFFLED AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TOO TELL ME! THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION FOR ANYONE TO BE DRIVING WITH AND I FEAR IT WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT SOMEDAY SOON. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH MY HEADLIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY DIMMING THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED BY MANY GM CONSUMERS SINCE I STARTED DRIVING THE VEHICLE IN 2007. I DO NOT WANT TO HAVE TO PAY ANOTHER MECHANIC TO REPLACE MY DRIVER'S SIDE TURN SIGNAL RELAY SYSTEM, JUST FOR IT FAIL AGAIN DUE TO THESE DANGEROUS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PROBLEMS IN MY 2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. GM NEEDS TO ACT QUICKLY!

BLINKERS ON A 2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE WILL QUIT WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY SEEM TO BE A FACTOR. MULTIPLE TAPS ON THE HAZARD SWITCH WILL RESTART THE BLINKERS TEMPORARILY. THIS TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM IN THE OLDS ALERO OF THE SAME PERIOD. SEE NHTSA ACTION NUMBER :EA02037. *TR

EVER SINCE 2010, I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH A SERIOUS GM PASSLOCK ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM ISSUE. IT BEGAN WITH MY VEHICLE NOT STARTING ONE DAY. IT HAD POWER; ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS WORKED, RADIO, ETC..., BUT IT WOULD NOT START. AT FIRST, I HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO DO, BUT I WOULD ALWAYS SOMEHOW GET IT TO START AFTER A LOT OF PUNCHING OF THE DASHBOARD AND SHIFTING MY GEARS RAPIDLY OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THE PROBLEM SLOWLY STARTED OCCURRING MORE FREQUENTLY AND I BEGAN TO DO SOME RESEARCH ON IT AND FIGURED OUT THAT IT WAS INDEED AN PASSLOCK SYSTEM MALFUNCTION AFTER CONFIRMING THAT MY SECURITY LIGHT WOULD BLINK WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. I COULD GET IT TO START AFTER WAITING 10 MINUTES WITH THE KEY IN THE ON POSITION, WHEN THE SECURITY LIGHT WOULD STOP BLINKING AFTER THAT 10 MINS, I WOULD TURN IT BACK TO THE OFF POSITION AND THEN BACK TO THE ON POSITION AND IT WOULD START UP, RESETTING THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM. EVENTUALLY, IN 2012, THE PROBLEM WAS OCCURRING USUALLY EVERY 3RD ATTEMPT AT STARTING UP, AND THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM RESET TRICK WOULD NOT WORK 9/10 TIMES, IT WOULD SOMETIMES TAKE HOURS FOR ME TO GET IT TO START. IN NOVEMBER OF 2012, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY CAR SLOWLY STARTING SHUTTING DOWN, ALL WARNING LIGHTS FLASHING, AND ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTS DIMMED DOWN TO NOTHING, LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER UNHARMED (ALSO ABOUT 2 WEEKS BEFORE THIS, MY DRIVER'S SIDE TURN SIGNAL RELAY SYSTEM COMPLETELY BLEW/FAILED). I FOUND OUT THAT MY ALTERNATOR WAS COMPLETELY DRAINED AND DEAD, SO I REPLACED IT. THIS FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS, AND THEN IT STARTED OCCURRING AGAIN EVERY NOW AND THEN AND HAS BEEN OCCURRING INTERMITTENTLY EVER SINCE; THE PASSLOCK RESET IS CURRENTLY WORKING. CONSIDERING THAT THE ALTERNATOR WAS ONLY A TEMPORARY FIX, THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MALFUNCTION OF THE GM PASSLOCK SYSTEM. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND HAS CAUSED HARM TO MY LIFE (EG. SCHOOL & JOB EFFECTED)

2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE - RANDOM BLINKER FAILURE USUALLY FOR A COUPLE OF MILES AFTER START. SAME PROBLEM AS DESCRIBED IN NHTSA ACTION NUMBER EA02037 AND NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER FOR THE OLDSMOBILE ALERO. *TR

2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE, VEHICLE WAS WESTBOUND ON THE OHIO TURNPIKE WHEN THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE CAME OFF. *BF ACCORDING TO THE POLICE REPORT, ALL THE LUG NUTS AND BOLTS WERE SHEARED OFF. THERE WAS DAMAGE TO THE FRONT FENDER. (OHIO TRAFFIC CRASH REPORT # 10-0247-89)*JB UPDATED 08/06/10 *BF

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. WHENEVER HE STARTED HIS VEHICLE AND BEGAN DRIVING THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED OCCURRED FOUR TIMES. EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER THEY STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. DUE TO THE FAILURE OCCURRING INTERMITTENTLY THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST WOULD COST HIM A $100. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CALLED AND CLAIM #71847623579 WAS FILED WHEN THEY INFORMED HIM THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 93,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. CONSUMER STATES PROBLEM WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND A.I.R. PUMP *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE AIR CONDITIONER FAILED AND WAS BLOWING OUT HOT AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND COLD AIR ON THE DRIVERS' SIDE. THE WHEELS WERE NO GOOD. THE PLATING ON THE INSIDE WOULD COME OFF AND CREATE PROBLEMS FOR THE TIRES SEALING PROPERLY, THEREFORE AN UNEVEN WEAR OCCURRED. THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED HE BEGAN TO HAVE STEERING PROBLEMS, THERE WERE SEVERAL LIGHTS COMING ON THE DASH AND GOING OFF, BUT THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THE CONSUMER BEGAN TO INVESTIGATE AND DISCOVERED THE PART THAT WAS CAUSING THE LIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE WAS THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE MODULATOR WHICH COST $1,000. THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SHIFT HARD AT TIMES AND SOMETIMES WHINE WHILE DRIVING. THE TURN SIGNALS DID NOT ALWAYS WORK OR THEY WOULD SHUT OFF WHILE BLINKING. WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS ACTIVATED, AND THE TURN SIGNAL OR HEAD LIGHTS WERE ACTIVATED THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD DEACTIVATE BY ITSELF. THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW STOPPED WORKING AND THE SWAY BAR WAS CRACKED. ALSO, THE GAS PEDAL WOULD STICK AT TIMES. THE HEATED SEATS WERE TOO COOL ON LOW AND TOO HOT ON HIGH. *JB

NO INJURIES AS OF YET BUT A DEFAULT IN THE LEFT SIDE DIRECTIONAL (SIGNAL) TURNING LIGHT. WORKS FOR A DAY AND THEN BURNS OUT CREATING BURN PLASTIC IN THE SOCKET, COULD LEAD TO A WIRING PROBLEM CAUSING THE ALTERNATOR AND SUCH TO BURN OUT. *TR

1: NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO PROBLEM 2: THE PASS LOCK IN MY 2000 OLDS INTRIGUE IS "WORN" OUT, RANDOMLY CAUSING MY CAR TO TURN OFF. SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL NOT START. 3: APPX $500 "REPLACEMENT" COST. NOT COUNTING THE DIAGNOSTIC FEE OR TOWING. *TR

THE 2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE RANDOMLY DOES NOT START AND SOMETIMES LEAVES THE FAMILY STRANDED. AFTER 30 MINUTES OR SO OF WAITING, IT MAY START RIGHT UP. IT HAS TAKEN UP TO A DAY TO RESTART. IT STARTED WITHIN A COUPLE YEARS OF PURCHASE, BUT HAS GETTING WORSE AS TIME GOES ON. RANDOMLY OCCURS 1 TO 2 TIMES PER WEEK. THE DEALERS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND A PROBLEM. *TR

FRONT SWAY BAR BREAKAGE AT LINK ON 2000 OLDS INTRIGUE. R&R SWAY BAR & LINKAGE. STILL HAVE PARTS. ORIG BAR IS TUBULAR,REPLACEMENT IS SOLID BAR AFTER CHECKING,SONS 2001 INTRIGUE SAME WAY. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE ABS ENGAGED AUTOMATICALLY. SHORTLY AFTER, NUMEROUS WARNING INDICATORS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE ABS HYDRAULIC MODULATOR UNIT. THROUGH ONLINE RESEARCH, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 00V114000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS). THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT HER VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, ALTHOUGH THE FAILURES WERE IDENTICAL. SHE BELIEVES THAT HER VEHICLE SHOULD BE REPAIRED ACCORDING TO THE RECALL. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 65,000.

I BELIEVE THAT I AM EXPERIENCING THE VERY SAME ISSUE AS ADDRESSED IN INVESTIGATION #EA02037. HOWEVER, I HAVE A 2000 OLDS INTRIGUE. I HAVE TRIED CHECKING THE FUSES AND WIRING, BUT RECENTLY DISCOVERED THAT BY MOVING THE HAZARD SWITCH, THE BLINKERS START WORKING AGAIN. CURRENTLY I HAVE FLAKY TURN SIGNALS AND WHEN THEY DO WORK, ONLY THE BACK SIGNALS LIGHT AND BLINK, WHILE THE FRONT SIGNAL LIGHT COMES ON, THE FRONT SIGNALS DO NOT BLINK. I HAVE TO "JIGGLE" THE HAZARD SWITCH DAILY AND HAVE HAD NO LUCK FINDING A REPLACEMENT SWITCH. AS OF TODAY, I HAVE NARROWLY AVOIDED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS WHILE TURNING LEFT BECAUSE THE CARS IN FRONT OF ME CANNOT SEE A WORKING SIGNAL. PLEASE ADVISE. *TR
