“THE IGNITION SWITCH -- WHICH WAS REPLACED IN 2012 WITH A NEW GM DEALER PART -- TURNS BY ITSELF TO THE ACC SETTING WHILE DRIVING (ENGINE CUTS OUT AND POWER STEERING LOSES POWER). I SUSPECT THAT THIS IS RELATED TO THE GM IGNITION SWITCH RECALL PROBLEM, BUT SINCE THIS MODEL IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST, I AM ENCOUNTERING A CHALLENGE TO GET IT REPAIRED. PLEASE PHONE ONLY -- NOT AN E-MAIL USER. *TR”

“MY 1999 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE IS SUFFERING FROM THE SAME PRE-EXISTING ISSUES AS OTHER OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE'S. SUCH AS THE ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, THE EXTERIOR LIGHTING AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. I HAVE LOOKED ON WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV AND CALLED 18004249393 AND MY OLDSMOBILE CONSULTANT 1800442653. AS THE ONLY THING SAID IS THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT EFFECTED. I DO THINK MY VEHICLE WAS AFFECTED AND HERE ARE THE REASONS. TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE THAT PROGRESSED, WHICH SOUNDED LIKE A KNOCKING ASSOCIATED WITH THE ENGINE ASSEMBLY RODS. WHILE DRIVING AN 20 MPH RATE OF SPEED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO MOVE. A LOCAL MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT A ROD FRACTURED AND WATER AND OIL LEAKED INTO THE ENGINE, WHICH CAUSED A MAJOR ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN AND WAS PARKED AT THE HOME AND NOW CAN ONLY DRIVEN FOR A SHORT TIME DUE TO OVER HEATING (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING), 00V044000 (SEAT BELTS), AND 14V400000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, AND MILEAGE ANY WHERE FROM 10 TO 70 MPH.”
