1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Body and structure Problems

“I have a 1990 oldsmoble Cutlass Supreme. A recall #00065 for GM was done on my car and only the front cradle bolts and retainers were done. But upon reviewing NHTSA's recall #00v189000 the front and rear should have been done. Since the refusal from GM the rear bolts have come down and my engine is leaning back. I have talked to the dealer twice and the manufacture GM 3 times and they both say that they only have to do the front cradle bolts for their recall and not the rear. I also have my original receipt that says only 2 bolts and retainers were bought and installed.”

“On apr.12,1996,my girlfriend was driving on the expressway when she felt vibration in the steering wheel she immediately drove home and asked me to check on it.

I lost control of the car(no steering),and hit a telephone pole, wrecking the front end. Upon inspection of the car, I found the motor sitting on the ground detached from the car. I had the car towed home. …”

“The car was originally purchased in my wife's name (judy lynn melin now judy lynn waldrep). The mileage listed is approximate (car is sitting at dealer). While my wife was driving the car through a busy intersection, the rear cradle mount dropped and she lost control of the car. Other cars were swerving all around her to avoid her. Through some miracle, she did not strike another car or any object; the car rolled to safety, but my wife was very shaken. We found out that for this very type of car, in other states, GM/Oldsmobile did a recall (97016) in several states, but not ours (minnesota). …”
