Fraudulent vehicle inspection & emissions done on a regarding 2001 oldsmobile intrigue, purchase date, march 17, 2014. I have been back and forth between their approved shops and my usual mechanic taking an excessive time from work to try to get the repairs done. The car was found to have an issue with the fuel distribution, the front turn signals aren't firing which will require a replacement headlight assembly, and I was also told that the gas gauge sensor may need to be replaced. The oil light & check engine lights are also on. All these things I was assured would be repaired by [xxx], the salesperson. He stated the inspection facility, pa station id#[xxx], has been sending the vehicles to them partially inspected and they are aware of the issue. This vehicle "inspection" was on 3/4/14,and I believe this shop, and others like it, are knowingly defrauding consumers of this establishment.

We have and oldsmobile intrigue 2001 was purchased in 2002. It was only used as dealer car. Since buying it we have had problems with dimming headlights intermittent, turn signals work when they want, brakes that grind and pulsate, vibration from right front side.

We also had a problem with the secondary air pump we replaced it not a few weeks later it went out again. We have had no success with this cars problems.
Tl*the contact owns a 2001 oldsmobile intrigue. While driving 35 MPH, the vehicle continuously stalls and hesitates. In addition, the instrument panel indicators would illuminate at random. The vehicle failed inspection and the crankshaft sensor was replaced, which helped with the stalling and hesitation; however, the check engine indicator was still illuminated. Days after the crankshaft sensor was replaced, the vehicle failed to start. However, all of the instrument panel indicators flashed on and off. After numerous attempts to start the vehicle, he had it jumpstarted. The vehicle was then able to start. While driving home, all of the lighting flashed and the vehicle suddenly shut off. The vehicle lost all electrical power and power steering ability. The contact managed to park the vehicle in a parking lot and had it towed the following day to a repair shop. The vehicle is currently still in the shop. The vehicle has been recalled in canada and he believes that it should also be recalled in the united states. The failure mileage was unknown and the current mileage was 106,000.
Tl*the contact owns a 2001 oldsmobile intrigue. The contact stated that the alternator and battery had been replaced several times. When he activated the air conditioner, the vehicle would shut off.

P0410 code: haven't been able to get this vehicle inspected in 2 years. Replaced a.I.r. Pump and alternator to no avail. Cleared code but always comes back after 50 miles of driving. Seems to be a false p0410 code since pump is actually functioning and going through startup tests when vehicle first started. Skeptical about taking vehicle to gm dealerships. There's always seem to be another "failure" after you drive from dealerships.
