Signal lights started causing problems approx. 5 years ago. Blowing bulbs, working some time but not all the time. bulb sockets overheating and melting. replaced front headlight assembly right and left. not the problem. Still have same problem. They will stop working, one side at the time and for no rational reason will start again as if a short in the electrical system. Running lights work part of time. we have replaced a ton of bulbs but to no avail. can someone on this earth please tell me where the switches are located in the electrical system so this vehicle can be repaired. so far, no luck in this effort. my car only has 330,000 miles plus and so far this IS all that IS wrong.

I'D been noticing that my car would quit at random times a little over a year ago, at first once every month or three, then gradually worked up to maybe once or twice a week. when I received the recall notice and took my key off my key ring. I had no further quitting incidents until I took my car in to the dealer october 31ST. they did their thing with my key, and my car quit ten minutes later, on the way to an urgent appointment. I got it started again, then it quit again a couple of blocks down the road. I finally made it to my appointment, 5 minutes late. I put aside the "new" key, used a spare from then on, and the car seemed fine over the weekend. but on monday morning I drove to the gym to work out, and the car would not start when I finished my workout and I walked the rest of the way to work. it started fine that evening, then again this morning, but conked out half way to work again. I got it started again before it coasted to a stop, but this IS getting ridiculous. I think the recall IS a failure, and gm needs to do something much more than replacing the key head for it to be effective. if I wasn't a strong man, I could have had many serious accidents by now. *tr

Gm sent me a recall notice for the infamous ignition switch defect. the cheap remedy that they propose, which IS to provide the owner with a keyring the restricts adding additional keys to the keychain, imposes an additional burden on the car owner beyond what was required when the owner purchased the car. the remedy provided by gm IS entirely unacceptable. instead, gm should replace the ignition cylinder as they are doing in newer cars. alternatively, gm should buy the cars back at its current kelly blue book value. *tr

3 months ago my electrical started going haywire. Turn signals, dash, lights, windows. Most occur while turning car on. It's hit and miss whether it starts. Battery drains sometimes no rhyme or reason. It starts without incident one day and then needs recharged the next. I've had multiple people tell me an aray of different possibilities, alternator, ignition switch, battery, worn down key, leaving something on etc. I believe the problem occurs because the key can come in and out while in any position. Because of this I believe the battery IS being drained because people are unaware that they are removing the key while it IS still in the acc or on position. This doesnt explain why various electrical components aren't working at full capacity all the time. I did notice that the hit and miss quality wasn't as severe once I removed all extras from the key after receiving the recall notice a week ago. I started to pay more attention to what was going on to see if perhaps the issue was related last sunday the battery seemed dead again and the car wouldn't start. I tried several times until I got things to light up but then the key slipped out while trying to start it. I slipped the key back in and now it won't turn to either the off or start positions. It remains in acc or on positions only. Even if I charged the battery I wouldn't be able to start it or turn the electrical accessories off to keep the battery from draining again. From what I can tell, the recall doesn't actually replace the ignition switch it only modifies the keys to keep the ignition switch from becoming faulty. What am I supposed to do since the problem has already occurred? Even though the part that the recall was issued for caused my problem, will I have to pay out of pocket to fix the actual problem? Who do I contact if they will fix the problem? *tr

This car IS an electrical nightmare. The intrigue seems to have so many of the same alero problems, but no resolution from gm regarding them. vehicle continually will: not start, start and then die, have the instrument cluster go haywire (all gauges drop to the bottom, then jump back up, lights coming on then going off - ABS, check engine, service engine, etc) additionally - security (passlock) light will come on sometimes when the instrument cluster goes nuts, and then will stay on. This often leads to a no-start condition. if battery IS disconnected for a few minutes, this will usually resolve the issue. Sometimes, when there's a no-start (no cranking) - turning the car to acc, and then moving the shifter through a couple gears, will resolve the issue. When there's a no-start (with cranking) - this can eventually be resolved by disconnecting the battery for a long time. the gauges going crazy while driving: often, when not actively pressing the accelerator, the gauges will drop to the bottom (empty gas tank light comes on, rpm, gas, and heat needles drop to zero; speed usually remains functional). When pressing the accelerator, they all pop back up to functional (only to drop again when there's no acceleration). the key - can be taken out of the ignition switch while the car IS running, with no resistance. I have replaced: battery multiple times, battery cables once, the ignition switch & cylinder have been replaced at least once or twice by a mechanic trying to resolve the issue; wiring harnesses within the engine compartment and below the steering wheel have been replaced. *tr

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

When driving my 1999 oldsmobile intrigue at approximately 45mph I hit a very large pot hole in the street. it jarred the vehicle and switched the ignition in my vehicle off. I lost power in the vehicle and my ability to properly steer the vehicle. I was thankfully in a lane where I was able to pull the vehicle over without issue (power steering was not available and the wheel was almost locked and it required a lot of pulling to be able to pull over) and restart the car. I did have a large/heavy key ring on my keys at that time. *tr

The alleged defect concerns two major symptoms:failure to retract webbing and inability to extend the webbinng for use. The root cause of these symptoms IS the design of the trim bezel through which the sebbing passes. Built into the rear package shelf, the bezel includes a vertical slot to facilitate vehicle assembly.the slot IS positioned such that the shoulder belt webbing tends to slip into it.webbing ingestion by the vertical slot may retard webbing retraction, or allow webbing twists to accumulate on the retractor spool.in either case, the retractor may fail to maintain appropriate tension on the seat occupant.failure of the shoulder belt to completely retract may also result in an inability to extend it for use if the child restraint cinch feature has been inadvertently engage (by extending the webbing to its maximum length).gm will remedy the alleged defect in the subject vehicles by straightening an twisted rear shoulder belt webbing and them installing a plastic cover that will prevent further webbing ingestion by the webbing guide vertical slot.this engineerign ananlysis IS closed.
