This car is an electrical nightmare. The intrigue seems to have so many of the same alero problems, but no resolution from gm regarding them. Vehicle continually will: not start, start and then die, have the instrument cluster go haywire (all gauges drop to the bottom, then jump back up, lights coming on then going off - ABS, check engine, service engine, etc) additionally - security (passlock) light will come on sometimes when the instrument cluster goes nuts, and then will stay on. This often leads to a no-start condition. If battery is disconnected for a few minutes, this will usually resolve the issue. Sometimes, when there's a no-start (no cranking) - turning the car to acc, and then moving the shifter through a couple gears, will resolve the issue. When there's a no-start (with cranking) - this can eventually be resolved by disconnecting the battery for a long time. The gauges going crazy while driving: often, when not actively pressing the accelerator, the gauges will drop to the bottom (empty gas tank light comes on, RPM, gas, and heat needles drop to zero; speed usually remains functional). When pressing the accelerator, they all pop back up to functional (only to drop again when there's no acceleration). The key - can be taken out of the ignition switch while the car is running, with no resistance. I have replaced: battery multiple times, battery cables once, the ignition switch & cylinder have been replaced at least once or twice by a mechanic trying to resolve the issue; wiring harnesses within the engine compartment and below the steering wheel have been replaced.

I have had a problem with the ABS system on my car for a few months now. When I start my car the ABS goes to set itself and the ABS light comes on along with the brake light. As I have been researching the problem I have found that it is one of the main problems on the car, but nothing has been done about his problem. It is a very costly fix dealing with the wheel bearings and sensors. My 1998 oldsmobile intrigue is a very solid car, but I believe they have a faulty ABS system on them due to the hub assemblies. The average price for such a repair that I have seen is $500- $1100. Many drivers of these cars are not getting them fixed as it is costly. Thus this there are thousands of intrigues around with the ABS turned of increasing the chances of brake failure.

The windshield wipers do not operate properly, making it difficult to see the road during inclement weather. Abs light/check light remained on, which the owner's manual informed the consumer that anti-lock brakes may not function.

I own a 2000 oldsmobile intrigue and while driving down the road the headlights will go dim to the point of almost being off. Not only is this dangerous to me and my family of 4 it is dangerous to others driving towards me. I have taken this back to the dealership where I have bought it on several occasions and the problem still remains after 2 alternators and a computer was replaced. They did however find that the problem is a sensor for the antilock braking system, it is some sort of sensor that detects when a wheel isnt turning fast enough and it kicks a motor in that makes it catch up causing the loss of power to the lights, thus causing them to dim. They said it has been recalled for the same problem in the bravada, s10, gmc envoy, jimmy and sonoma. They said it is service bulletin cqb00-18. It states that the ebcm loses a wheel speed sensor signal and it will activate the ABS motor monentarily, since the motor may draw up to 100 amps the lights will dim or flicker during the cycle. The brakes do not have to be applied for this condition to happen. The loss of signal could be caused by faulty wiring, a bad wheel speed sensor or sensor ring or air gap (worn brakes). None of these have been repaired on my vehicle because they stated that this did not apply to my vehicle and they could not repair it even though that the same problem exist in over 200,000 intrigues of the same year. I would greatly appreciate you looking into this matter and making the dealerships reapir this problem by issuing a service bulletin.

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.
