2003 Oldsmobile Silhouette Engine Problems

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 OLDSMOBILE SILHOUETTE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND OPERATED AS NORMAL. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

T-BONED CROSSING A 4WAY DUE TO VIEW OBSTRUCTION. OTHER PERSON HIT US AT 60 MILES PER HR. AIR BAGS DEPLOYED APPROX. 10 SECONDS AFTER INITIAL IMPACT. *TR

AFTER ACCELERATING TO PASSING GEAR, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON .. AND THE ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE THE SPARK PLUG FAILED. THE DIAGNOSTIC CHECK SAID THERE WAS NO COMPRESSION IN THE #2 CYLINDER. THE MECHANIC AT THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE ROCKER ARM BOLT HAD STRIPPED OUT. THAT THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. THERE ARE 95,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE. HOWEVER, I CONSIDER THIS A MANUFACTURING DEFAULT .. THE BOLT SHOULD NOT HAVE STRIPPED OUT OF THE ENGINE BLOCK. I QUESTION WHETHER THE OTHER ROCKER ARM BOLTS WILL STRIP ... GM DENIED ANY RESPONSIBILITY .. BECAUSE IT DIDN'T SHOW AT THE 35,000 MILE BUMPER TO BUMPER CHECK. *TR

THERE IS A VERY FOUL ODOR THAT EMITS FROM THE A/C UNIT ON MY 2003 OLDS SILHOUETTE VAN. I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY BE SOME SORT OF BACTERIAL/FUNGUS GROWTH THAT MAY BE MAINIFESTING ITSELF IN THE A/C UNIT. I DON'T WANT PEOPLE GETTING SERIOUSLY ILL BEFORE SOME SORT OF CORRECTIVE ACTION IS TAKEN. WHAT IS THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION THAT I NEED TO TAKE? THE DEALERSHIP (EARL OLDSMOBILE, CLEVELAND, OH) IS NOT TAKING THIS PROBLEM SERIOUSLY. PLEASE ADVISE, THANK YOU.*AK

CONSUMER NOTICED AN OIL LEAK. TOOK VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALER, AND DEALER STATED OIL GASKET WAS LEAKING ,AND GASKET NEEDED REPLACING.*AK
