When I drove on high way or local, suddenly the car is power off, engine and power steering do not work at all, need pull over restart several times, then drive a while this happen again. This happened several times in the past years.

I don't know what I can do for this, I cannot afford new car and definitely will not sold this defect car to anyone else.

After rounding a curve and seeing a deer and thinking how lucky I was that it didn't jump out in front of me, my engine died and I lost control of the vehicle. It went off into the drivers side ditch and hit a field driveway culvert with the divers side tire, which ultimately bent the frame and totaled my car.. However, the airbags did deploy and I had only a minor injury. My elbow went through a drivers side air vent. Since my car is totaled and the recall sounds like it was the cause, can I get my car fixed or some kind of compensation? I had a lot of keys on my car ring as a work for the city.

I have had a problem with the AC and the service engine light has been on every since I got it also. I have fixed everything I can think to fix to get the service engine light off and it still is on. I have been back and forth with the dealership that I got the car from then they started giving me the run around b/c they just didn't want to fix it any more. Then I tried to get it fixed were I live and one place could not fix it b/c they said that I had a life time warranty on it so I had to take it to a gm dealer ship. The original company said that I didn't have a warranty on it at one point. So I took it to the other dealership and they fixed it one day , I can and got it a week later and keep in mind I was out of a car and I had to wait for them to pay for a day or two for the rental then when I went pick it up, it still was not working and then I took it back twice and they said that it was the condenser. So I took my vehicle and took it to just a regular dealership b/c the amt to fix it was 1100 dollars there. He put dye in it and everything and three wks to six wks later I am back were I started b/c it is not the condenser. I just want a to get the AC fix to were it will work and keep working. This is a every summer thing and it is to hot in the summer people die. It is 107 degrees out and I already am paying double for a vehicle why should I have to take another car payment. I don't like to recycle cars every three yrs. I want to pay it off and be done with it. I want to save and invest not pay dealer ships the rest of my life. Please help me to get a resolution.
My 2000 oldsmobile intrigue began with heater malfunctioning during january 2007. The seymour, wi. Gustman dealershhip handled my complaints. Gasoline was found in the coolant, and the resulting repair bill was $3025.00 I feel that the oldsmobile/general motors company was responsible for this defect and ought to pay for the repairs since it became known to me that they already had a repair kit , which implied that they knew of this problem beforehand.*ak updated 10/15/07.
