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 www.safercar.gov 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.

Engine and everything electrical stops instantly. Everything shuts off. During restart the vehicle cranks longer (5-6 seconds) before starting and misses for 3-4 seconds. Then runs strong as if nothing happened. Some times turn signals will stop working after a restart and other times the turn signals will stop working whether the vehicle stalled or not. At higher speeds (45mph +) the vehicle will frequently shut off but instantly come back on.

Turn signal/hazard flashers.on occasion will not work period, or turn on with no blinking. Wiggling the hazard switch can bring back the flashing/flickering. Replaced part once for the same reason, was good for three months, but it came back again. The irony, the car has an no start/security light problem, but when I installed the new hazard flasher, I did not have the no start problem until the hazard switch failed again. Now it makes one wonder if the hazard switch plays a roll in the security/passkey no start scenario. Secondly, I see the recall for the Impala/Malibu/ monte carlogrand am/ Grand Prix/Alero. The security light and passlock issue, if tripped will cut fuel supply, I still hear the fuel pump priming, as passkey is not a starter kill, it is rather a fuel kill. I also replaced the starter/and ignition switch, and still this problem exists. Therefore, I have two issues, first the turn signal that dies out, until you wiggle the hazard switch might bring it back. And a second independent issue of the security light/no start issue. The security light can be on, and the vehicle will restart no problem, and times with no security light, and no start. I mean by no start, the car will not turn/crank period. General Motors should be involved in this matter, these are defective parts, that are widespread and not just at random. General Motors needs to act properly, and the NHTSA should follow up on this matter closely to find a proper repair rather than guessing what the problem is. Thank you

1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue: When driving in cold weather (below 40 degrees F), all lights dim and then brighten randomly, including headlights and dash lights. Sometimes headlights momentarily dim so much as to make driving temporarily unsafe. Problem has occurred every winter for several years. GM dealer claims to know nothing about it, but some web sites say a replacement Bosch alternator (approx. $450 plus installation) can cure the problem. This is a repeated annoyance that could cause a fatal crash.
