1. Rear seat belt sometimes locks and won't pull out 2. Anti-lock brakes make loud ratcheting noise and temporarily activate upon starting car, causing what feels like a temporary lack of braking - dealer has not attempted to fix saying it is normal. 3. Intermediate steering shaft has failed twice causing noticible "clunking" noise - dealer has replaced twice under warranty, who will pay the next time? 4. Left rear window sometimes fails to operate.

Rear seat belts lock up in partially extended state, so passengers cannot use them. Problem is a vertical slot in the belt retractor guide, which is wide enough for the horizontally retracting belt to slide into, resulting in a twisted belt that locks up. Olds customer service says they 'operate as designed'. How can anyone in 1998 'design' a seat belt that renders itself useless in normal service????????? New cars on the showroom floor also have this problem and sooner or later someone will be killed because they couldn't use their seat belt.
