Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Headlights dim, flashers fail intermittently, windshield wipers point straight up when turned off. This is a car with an excellent engine and transmission. Unfortunately alot of the electrical components have started to fail. Will purchase service manuals (3 books) from ebay on work on the issues this summer.”
NHTSA complaint #10062621, filed 2004-03, 64,000 miles“Power steering gear assembly was replaced at 26,000 miles. Currently, at 35,000 miles, the lower steering shaft must be replaced. The consumer stated the vehicle continued to snap and pop when turning the wheel and over small bumps. The consumer took the vehicle several times, with no answer until recently, in which the dealer stated the steering column should be replaced. The window motor and thermostat failed.”
NHTSA complaint #10053927, filed 2004-02, 26,000 miles“Windshield wipers do not park... Have repaired every year since I purchased the vehicle in 2001. Repair involved straightening a rod at the wiper assy. Just the wiper barely frozen to the windshield will cause the problem as well as wiping windshield in snow storms. The wipers park in the up position, causing a problem with having a clear view from the windshield. This site lists many incidents of this same problem. A new wiper assy is the only fix and at over $300 for the part not including labor, that is unacceptable. Especially if the new unit has the same design flaw. …”
NHTSA complaint #10214558, filed 2008-01, 25,200 miles“Over the last 1 1/2 years I have had to replace all four window regulators on my 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue because a plastic part broke. The part holds the cable that moves the window in the door. These repairs have cost me almost $1800.”
NHTSA complaint #10239802, filed 2008-08“Our lights dim,heater fan cuts out,heat gauge goes all the way to hot,interior buttons are so hot you cannot touch,oil headlight comes on even though we have reset it and oil has been changed.”
