Paint peel on bottom drive and passenger doors, both sides. Contacted GM and asked that I vist the Oldsmobile dealer where I frequent. The dealter indicated that the paint peel is due to no splash guards or mud flaps. Contacted GM customer service and GM sided with the dealer's assessment of the reason for the paint peel. However the dealer is willing to pay for half the cost to repair the paint peel. However it will not guarantee that the repair will prevent the paint peel from occurring in the same locations again. How can the paint peel be due to no splash guards or mud flaps when the 1999 Oldsmobile standard or optional features do no include spash guards or mud flaps

After w/S wipers were arrested by snow in the gutter at the bottom of the windshield, they ended up stopping in a vertical position instead of in the gutter recess.

1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue gls. When the consumer exited the freeway, he heard a mechanical noise which resulted in power steering lost for left turning only. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the rack and pinion was replaced. The vehicle experienced other problems such as engine stalling shortly after starting, the weather strip was deformed, a pulsating noise coming from the front end, however a road test only found tire noise, the right rear window was inoperative, the coolant light illuminated, the fuel pressure regulator was replaced, the ignition switch was replaced, the fuel filter, battery and remote were replaced. The vehicle also experienced an oil leak.

1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue. Paint peel on bottom driver and passenger doors, both sides. Contacted GM and asked that I visit the Oldsmobile dealer where I frequent. The dealer indicated that the paint peel is due to no splash guards or mud flaps. Contacted GM customer service and GM sided with the dealers assessment of the reason for the paint peel. The dealership would not even take pictures of the vehicle to send in to the GM zone administrator and would not consider doing so because the car's warranty had expired. How can the paint peel be due to no splash guards or mud flaps when the 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue standard or optional feature do not include splash guards or mud flaps.

In emergency situations horn is very hard to press because of its location which causes the horn to be inoperative. Also, there is a reflection on the dashboard which impairs the instrument panel view to the driver. When driving into the sunlight the vision impairment is a safety hazard.
