2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue Complaint Log

PASSLOCK PROBLEM, THE CAR WILL NOT START. I WAIT 15 MINUTES AND IT STARTS. THIS IS A RANDOM EVENT AND HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS. *TR

STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND BECAME HARD TO TURN HAVE HAD SEVERAL PARTS REPLACED AND PROBLEM STILL IS HAPPENING I HAVE OWNED THE CAR SENSE 2007 AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION ON RECALLS OR SERVICE UPDATES.... TURN SIGNALS ALL HAVE FUNCTIONING LIGHTS BUT FRONT LIGHTS WILL NOT BLINK ON THEIR OWN. *TR

MY COMPLAINT IS THE FRONT STABILIZER BAR FOR MY CAR. I HAVE REPLACED IT ONCE WITH ANOTHER BAR. THIS IS THE THIRD BAR THAT HAS BEEN ON THIS CAR. THE BAR NEEDS TO BE MADE ALOT BETTER THAN IT IS CURRENTLY. I AM TIRED OF REPLACING THE SAME PART? *TR

WINDSHIELD WIPERS DO NOT PARK... HAVE REPAIRED EVERY YEAR SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 2001. REPAIR INVOLVED STRAIGHTENING A ROD AT THE WIPER ASSY. JUST THE WIPER BARELY FROZEN TO THE WINDSHIELD WILL CAUSE THE PROBLEM AS WELL AS WIPING WINDSHIELD IN SNOW STORMS. THE WIPERS PARK IN THE UP POSITION, CAUSING A PROBLEM WITH HAVING A CLEAR VIEW FROM THE WINDSHIELD. THIS SITE LISTS MANY INCIDENTS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM. A NEW WIPER ASSY IS THE ONLY FIX AND AT OVER $300 FOR THE PART NOT INCLUDING LABOR, THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. ESPECIALLY IF THE NEW UNIT HAS THE SAME DESIGN FLAW. THIS IS A CLEAR DANGER.... *TR

COMPLETE POWER INTERRUPTION WHILE DRIVING FOR JUST A SECOND, CAUSING ALL WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATE. AS WELL AS FLICKER HEADLIGHTS.*TR

I HAVE A 2000 OLDS INTRIGUE THAT IS SHOWING THE SAME SIGNS AS THE RECALL NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER : 03V327000. CAN SOMEONE ADVISE ME AS TO WHETHER IT IS COVERED AS WELL? *TR

I NOTICED THE HEADLIGHTS DIMMING ON THEIR OWN ABOUT A WEEK AFTER I FIRST STARTED DRIVING THE VEHICLE. IT OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY, AND VERY OFTEN. I HAVE HEARD THE HEADLIGHTS SWITCHING INTO DIFFERENT MODES LIKE THIS BOTH A NIGHT AND DURING THE DAYTIME HOURS. THIS POSES A SERIOUS DISTRACTION TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC ON HIGHWAYS AND OTHER ROADS AND COULD CONFUSE OTHER DRIVERS AT STOP SIGNS. GM SHOULD ADDRESS THIS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY; I HAVE SEEN MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS VERY SAME ISSUE. [NOTE: I BELIEVE THIS ISSUE MAY ALSO BE LINKED TO A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THE TURN SIGNAL RELAY SYSTEM. I HAVE HAD INTERMITTENT BLINKER ISSUES AND FAILURES ON BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE SINCE 2010, AND IT DOES NOT APPEAR THAT THE REPLACEMENT OF THE TURN SIGNAL RELAY SYSTEM SOLVES THE PROBLEM, IT DID NOT FOR ME (FILED SEPARATE COMPLAINT FOR TURN SIGNAL ISSUES EXPERIENCED)]

OVER THE LAST 1 1/2 YEARS I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE ALL FOUR WINDOW REGULATORS ON MY 2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE BECAUSE A PLASTIC PART BROKE. THE PART HOLDS THE CABLE THAT MOVES THE WINDOW IN THE DOOR. THESE REPAIRS HAVE COST ME ALMOST $1800. *TR

MY 2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE BEGAN WITH HEATER MALFUNCTIONING DURING JANUARY 2007. THE SEYMOUR, WI. GUSTMAN DEALERSHHIP HANDLED MY COMPLAINTS. GASOLINE WAS FOUND IN THE COOLANT, AND THE RESULTING REPAIR BILL WAS $3025.00 I FEEL THAT THE OLDSMOBILE/GENERAL MOTORS COMPANY WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DEFECT AND OUGHT TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS SINCE IT BECAME KNOWN TO ME THAT THEY ALREADY HAD A REPAIR KIT , WHICH IMPLIED THAT THEY KNEW OF THIS PROBLEM BEFOREHAND.*AK UPDATED 10/15/07.

HEADLIGHTS, INSTRUMENT LIGHTS, AND FAN DIM AND OR FLICKER WHILE DRIVING. THE PROBLEM IS MOST PREVALENT WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS COLDER AND DURING ACCELERATION. HOWEVER PROBLEM ALSO EXISTS UNDER NORMAL CITY AND HIGHWAY DRIVING CONDITIONS. ENGINE PERFORMANCE AND RADIO DOES NOT FALTER DURING THE DIMMING OF THE LIGHTS. ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED FOLLOWING TSB 010603001 ONE YEAR AGO. PROBLEM APPEARED RESOLVED UNTIL COLD WEATHER SET IN AGAIN. *NM

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. THE CONTACT NOTICED A CLICKING NOISE WHEN SHE TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO SEARS AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. SHE THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY ALSO COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. WHILE THE CONTACT'S NEPHEW WAS DRIVING 55 MPH, THE TWO BOLTS IN THE SUBFRAME FELL OUT AND THE MOTOR FELL AGAINST THE FAN. SHE HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO BE INSPECTED AFTER THE LATEST FAILURE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 134,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 114,000.

WHILE TURNING LEFT ACROSS TRAFFIC THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO NOT WANT TO DRIVE FORWARD AND THEN WAS HIT BROAD SIDE BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS HIT FIRMLY AROUND THE PASSENGER'S SIDE FRONT TIRE AND FRONT FENDER AND HOOD, THE VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THE STEERING DID NOT SEEM TO WANT TO WORK AND THE SEAT BELTS DID NOT LOCK IN PLACE. *TR

CAR STALLS, OR DOES NOT WANT TO START. ALSO STALLS , OR BEGINS TO STALL WHILE IN TRAFFIC, THEN SURGES FORWARD IN ORDER TO GIVE ITSELF GAS, CAUSING THE CAR TO LUNGE FORWARD. *JB

THE 2000 OLDS INTRIGUE HAS THE TURN SIGNALS GO OUT ON OCCASION. THE HAZARD SWITCH IS CAUSING THIS. *JB

2000 OLDS INTRIGUE WILL NOT CRANK INTERMITTENTLY. ONCE IT CRANKS CAR STARTS AND RUNS PERFECTLY. HAS BEEN INTO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, BUT TO NO AVAIL. CRANK SENSOR WAS REPLACED 2/2006 AT MY EXPENSE. IT MADE NO DIFFERENCE IN CRANKING PROBLEM. ALSO HAS FLICKERING PROBLEM WITH HEADLIGHTS. ALTERNATOR HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE AT GM'S EXPENSE. *JB

I CURRENTLY HAVE A 2000 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE THAT I HAVE TAKEN IN FOR SERVICING DUE TO SPORATIC SHUT OFFS WHILE DRIVING TO THE SERVICING DEPARTMENT CARMAX. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN REPEATLY OVER THE PAST YEAR AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CLAIMS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM IS A HAZARD TO MYSELF, MY FAMILY AND OTHERS . THE CARS SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT DOES NOT STAY ON, THE POWER IN THE VEHICLE DEMINISHES AT SPORATIC TIMES TURNS OFF LOCKS THE FRONT WHEELS AND WILL TURN ON ONCE WE GET THE WHEELS TO UNLOCK THERE IS NO SIGN THE CAR IS ABOUT TO TURN OFF. IT HAS TURNED OFF ON THE STREET , IN THE EXPRESSWAY AND LUCKILY WE HAVE NOT BEEN INJURED OR INJURED OTHERS. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS NOT MAKING AN EFFORT TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE THEY CLAIM DUE TO THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT NOT TURNING ON THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I HAVE LEFT THE OLDS AT THE DEALER TO HAVE THEM DRIVE IT AROUND UNTIL THEY FIND THE PROBLEM. I HAVE GOTTENS CALLS FROM THE DEALER STATING THERE IS NOTHING WRONG . NOW I NEED YOUR HELP WHAT CAN I DO? I AM UNDER WARRANTY AND THIS PROBLEM IS NOT BEING RESOLVED .

COMMUNICATION FAILURE FROM MAIN COMPUTER CAUSES CAR TO STALL AND SOMETIMES NOT EVEN START AS WELL AS A/C HEATER AND CRUISE CONTROL WORKS ONCE AND A WHILE. CONTACTED DEALER AND WAS TOLD A PERSON FROM THE SERVICES DEPT WOULD CALL ME BACK. THEY DIDN'T. TALKED TO ANOTHER PERSON AND TOLD THEN ABOUT THE CAR STALLING AND NOT STARTING AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS EITHER THE FUEL FILTER OR THE FUEL PUMP. REPLACE FUEL FILTER, DIDN'T HELP CHECKED FUEL PUMP BUT IT WAS WORKING JUST FINE. THE CAR HAS STALLED OUT ON THE HIGHWAY MANY TIMES AND HAS BUT MY LIFE AS WELL AS MY CHILDRENS LIFES IN DANGER. WHEN IT DIES THE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES DO NOT RESPOND. JUST TODAY I HAD A BASIC COMPUTER SCAN DONE WHICH TOLD ME THE PROBLEM. THE PLACE THAT DID THE TEST INFORMED ME THAT IS THE #1 PROBLEM WITH THE OLDSMOBILE FROM 1997-2001. I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT GM IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM, BUT THEY WONT DO ANYTHING UNTIL A DEATH RESULTS FROM IT. GM NEEDS TO STEP UP AND FIX THESE PROBLEMS. THIS IS ALSO A PROBLEM WITH THE ALERO'S (2000 MODEL).

DT: THE OWNER HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND ITS JERKING WHEN SHIFTING GEARS. CONSUMER WANTS THE MANUFACTURER TO FIX THE CAR BECAUSE THE CAR ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES, AND IT IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD. THE CAR HAS JUST STARTED JERKING IN THE PAST WEEK. THE CAR HAS NOT LEFT THE OWNER STRANDED ANYWHERE YET. OWNER HAD THE DEALERSHIP LOOK AT THE CAR ,AND THE DEALERSHIP GAVE THE OWNER A $1000.00 CHARGE. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS TA PRESSURE SOLENOID ERROR. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN FIXED AS OF YET.*AK

CAN NOT MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN SMOOTHLY. TURNING RIGHT IS FINE BUT GO TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN YOU HAVE TO WRESTLE THE STEERING WHEEL. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THEIS WITH THE 98 OLDS INTRIGUE BUT NO RECALL FOR THE 2000 MODEL I HAVE THE 2000 MODEL AND I BELIEVE THJERE SHOUOLD BE SOME KIND OF RECALL FOR THIS DEFECT THE 98 AND 2000 MODELS ARE ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME. NOTHING WAS DOEN TO RPAIR THIS DEALERS JUST WANT YOIU TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHILCLE. NEEDS FIXED SOON COULD CAUSE VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENTS WHILE DRIVING POSSIBLY EVEN DEATH ....

HEADLIGHTS AND ALL ELECTRICAL WILL DIM AND FAN FOR HEATER WILL SLOW AND THE POWER OF THE ENGINE WILL LULL FOR A FEW SECONDS DOES NOT MATTER WHAT SPEED I AM GOING NOTICEABLE MOSTLY AT NIGHT WITH USE OF HEAD LIGHTS

WHILE MAKING AN UPHILL LEFT TURN AT APPROXIMATELY 10 TO 15 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL FAILED TO TURN AND WENT OVER A SIDEWALK. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND PULL OVER AND TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN AUTHORIZED GM DEALER (NO LOCAL OLDSMOBILE DEALER IN AREA). THE MECHANIC INFORMED THE DRIVER THAT THE STEERING GEAR WAS DEFECTIVE AND WAS REPLACED. PLEASE PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. *NM WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, DRIVER COULD NOT APPLY ENOUGH PRESSURE TO TURN STEERING WHEEL. DRIVER COULD NOT MAINTAIN CONTROL OF VEHICLE. FEMALE DRIVER HAD ADULT MALE TAKE VEHICLE TO DEALER WHERE POWER STEERING RACK WAS FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE AND REPLACED AND FRONT END ALIGNED. *TT *NM

HEAD GASKET FAILURE LEFT ME STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF A HIGHWAY FAR FROM HOME. THIS OCCURRED AFTER ABOUT 8 VISITS TO NUMEROUS GM DEALERSHIPS WHO WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF LOST COOLANT. OVER $3,000 IN REPAIRS LATER, WE DISCOVED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS VEHICLE THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

I HAVE BEEN NOTICING A CLUNKING AND NOISE WHEN I STEER. ALSO WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL FEELS VERY THE LIKE THE SHAFT IS LOOSE. *JB

HEADLIGHTS WERE FLICKERING. SIMILAIR TO SOMEONE TRYING TO BLOW OUT A CANDLE. TO THE POINT IT LOOKED LIKE THE LIGHT WERE ALMOST GOING OUT. HAPPENED ON I-83 JUST NORTH OF I-695.*AK

THE CAR WILL NOT CRANK THE STARTER AT TIMES (ABOUT 3 TIMES A WEEK). SOMETIMES IT TAKES TWO TRIES, SOMETIMES IT TAKES 35 TRIES, IT WILL NOT CRANK OVER. ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL ITEMS WORK FINE, BUT THE ENGINE WILL NOT CRANK OVER. WHEN IT EVENTUALY DOES THE CAR STARTS FINE AND RUNS FINE.*AK

A CLICKING NOISE WAS HEARD IN THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE AT ZERO MPH OR LOW SPEED WHILE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. THE POWER STEERING FLUID WAS FOUND TO BE EMPTY. THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS HARD AND CLUNKS INTO SUCCESSIVE GEARS RATHER THAN SHIFTING SMOOOTHLY. *TC

MY 2000 OLDS INTIRGUE'S POWER STEERING FAILS ONLY WHEN I TURN TO THE LEFT. I WILL NOT DRIVE THE CAR AS I THINK IT IS DANGEROUS. IN READING ONLINE, I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT GM RECALLED THIS PROBLEM ON 98 AND OLDER CARS, BUT HAS DONE NOTHING FOR THE NEWER CARS ALTHOUGH THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. $1300 IS A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX FOR A CAR THAT IS NOT VERY OLD AND I REFUSE TO PAY IT. *JB

THE CONSUMER IS EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE RACK AND PINION. THE CONSUMER HAD THE VEHICLE CHECKED BY THE DEALER AND ALSO CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT MAKING A LEFT TURN IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT.

4 CHROME PLATED ALUMINUM WHEELS ON MY OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE HAVE CORRODED AND ARE LEAKING AIR THROUGH THE HOLE SUPPLIED FOR THE VALVE STEM. THEY STILL LEAK AFTER REPLACEMENT OF THE VALVE STEM BECAUSE OF A POOR CORRODED SURFACE. MECHANIC INDICATED THAT WHEELS NEED TO BE REPLACED BEFORE THERE IS A BLOW OUT OF THE VALVE STEM.

I LOVE MY INTRIGUE EXCEPT FOR THE BUGS THAT SEEM TO KEEP POPPING UP. MY CAR STARTING CUTTING OFF JUST GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND IT WOULD START BACK UP BY ITSELF. I TOOK IT TO A OLDS DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, SO THEY REPLACED THE COMPUTER AND THEN IT SHOWED THE PROBLEM. THE COMPUTER SHOWED THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS BAD. THEY REPLACED IT AND EVERYTHING IS NOW GOOD. IT EVEN STOPPED THE DIMMING OF THE LIGHTS AT NIGHT, WHICH SEEMED TO BE PROBLEMS ON ALL INTRIGUES I HAVE READ ABOUT.*AK
