2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue GLS review from North America
"Sporty, sophisticated, fast, bold"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The hazard switch has fallon in!
The rear brakes were bad at 42000m due to sitting on the lot.
The lights flicker terribly and I have replaced the alternator and there was not difference.
The air pump whines at start up at times.
The tires that are on it "Mastercrafts" wear very fast!
Oh And the transmission was replaced under Preferred auto's 100k warranty! the pressure shift silenode was bad and tore the bands up in the transmission.
General comments?
All in all in the seven months that I have had this car I have been disappointed about the flickering lights and I'm bound and determined to find a fix "working on one now". but other than that I have taken it on several trips and I have enjoyed the ride and the gas mileage. 18 in the city and I have gotten 34 on the highway. as all in all I really like gm products. this car is very comfortable.
I am very disappointed that they stopped making Oldsmobile because I wanna another intrigue when mine wears out!
