Turn signal failure on a daily basis. I drive on a highway 80 miles a day. The turn signals may blink rapidly, normally, or not work at all. This can all occur within a few miles. However, when I took them to a repair shop, they could not duplicate the problem. This has been going on for over a year. I have also had to replace the air pump that pumps air into the emissions system twice, and it is still having problems. The car runs fine, but the engine light is on all the time. I also have the problem with the dimming lights which is caused by the air pump switching on and off.

I own a 2001 oldsmobile intrigue. The power steering and transmission was defective. On march 15, 2004, I paid for the replacement of the rack & pinion gear spoke valve for a cost of $758.69. On march 15, 2004, I paid for the replacement of valves pressure control solenoid and clearing the adapt cells for a cost of $758.55. On march 15, 2004, I also paid for the replacement of an inoperable crank sensor for the cost of $292.60.
The engine light came on and engine stalled and was hard to restart. It turned out to be the crank sensor needed to be replaced. Rather early for this sensor to go!
Shortly after 36,000 miles, vehicle began stalling intermittently, pcs, ABS, ses lights would come one & stay on. Stalling became more and frequent until it began occurring everytime within 120 seconds of cold start (over course of 2,000 -4,000 more miles. Nearly got broadsided by cement truck when vehicle stalled unexpectedly (after already doing its traditional first stall after cold start). Dealer diagnosed and replaced crank sensor. Gm would only pay for part and I was left with diagnosis and labor bill. Dealer would not provide me with defective part. Claimed it belonged to gm. On electrical problem, battery would run down after car left sitting for 3-4 days in cold weather. Would recharge battery and it would be ok. Could not find cause, then finally at about 25,000 miles, battery went bad & would not recharge. Dealer/gm replaced at no cost to me. However, problem continued. Then one evening I noticed that the vanity lights on the sunvisor mirror were illuminated even when sunvisor was completely stowed. Turns out the switch button is not depressing fully to disengage power switch to vanity lamp(s). Dealer would not repair --out of warranty.
Computer, emission and fuel they said it was a emission sensor and it does not work check engine light is still on after 150 miles, power window on driver just went out, transmission went out general motors good faith I only paid $625. Suspension they replace both outer tie rods. Had to pay for new alignment. Steering nut was fixed the day I test drove the car .
The consumer stated the upper and lower gaskets seals on the cooling system failed. The consumer had to add more coolant than normal. *ak
