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 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.

Brakes have been pulsing a lot to the point that the car does not break well. Took it in to have it fixed and was told that both front rotors and bearings would have to be replaced. Told that this is a common problem with this car. Cost me over $1000 for this repair.

Front stabilizer bar broke completely through near passenger side mount without prior audible notice. Area of tube broken is approximately where the tube begins to flatten out for mounting to control arm. No prior accident or unusual stress has happened to this vehicle. It appears that it has slowly been "worked" until it comp-letely cracked through, and then there was a very audible banging noise during normal operation of the vehicle on city streets.
