One of the vanity mirror lights quit working while still under warranty.
The CD player quit reading Cd's, but was fixed under warranty.
The heating control unit would intermittently disable the fan. This cost about $300 to repair.
The transmission has never shifted real smoothly especially when accelerating briskly, but the dealership could never find a problem with it. Since about 75,000 miles, the transmission occasionally jerks when accelerating from a stop or near stop. A reputable transmission shop tested it and said the transmission needs to be rebuilt.
I have the GLS with every option available. It has been garaged most of the time and has had very good care.
I purchased the Intrigue because I wanted something practical, but sporty. It is fun to drive and the engine still runs like new and accelerates very quickly.
The front seats are very comfortable and are good for long trips. There isn't a lot of room in the back seat unless you are under 6ft tall.
I am still on the original brakes and tires, but will probably have to get them replaced in the near future.
I will also have to get the transmission fixed, but the problem only occurs rarely. I am disappointed that it needs to be fixed so soon, but I think it was showing signs of a problem while still under warranty, but the dealership could detect one.
The mileage is very dependent on the driver. My wife gets around 24 MPG, but I usually get closer to 27.
I have 98 intrique and found that the transmission was shifting quite harshly. Transmission shop said everything was OK, but that there was GM bulletin out regarding this. Apparently there is a transmission calibration update that needs to be done by the dealer. They need to do a transmission computor flash. It fixed my problem. It shifts smoother than when it was new.
