2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue GLS review from North America
"Above average"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Minor issues with electrical, mostly with the control panel lights. At times the lights flicker. At first I believed there was a problem with the battery, but that was not the case. Had to replace the air pump recently. Other than that no major issues.
General comments?
I am very satisfied with the car, I am the second owner the previous owner used to drive it to Canada from Chicago, that is why I purchased it with 71,000 miles. I have driven it an additional 70,000 miles In the past 3 years (Mostly around the Midwest). Other than maintenance such as oil changes, and tune ups (every 6-8 months) I have not spent much money on this car. It rides smooth it is quiet and comfortable. I especially like the traction control and precision control system it handles well in the snow. I am disappointed GM phased out Oldsmobile I would have wanted to get an Aurora, but hopefully Buick picks up some of the Oldsmobile designs, then I will purchase a Buick.
