Ecm failed twice,ignition module failed, water pump failed causing leaking.
I took to the shop 3 times no one can find the problem the master computer was even replaced with a gmac rebuild the problem has not changed.
Lights on dashboard stay off for long periods of time, dealer statedcluster needed to be replaced. The ignition module failed three times.the three coils and the computer were replaced.the vehicle still fails to start due to crank shaft sensor failure.
Dashboard electronics do not work. Stay steady, goes off, and flashes. Smoke from steering column and signals stopped working.tt
Intermittent digital dashboard failure (speedometer, odometer and fuel gauge).
Consumer complained that dashboard components were not working properly.she could not tell how much fuel there was or how fast she was traveling/driving.consumer took vehicle to a mechanic to look at the problem, and was toldit was a wiringdefect. Mechanic triedto put a brand new part in the dashboard, but the problem recurred.consume rhad this problem for 3 years.
Lights on dashboard stay off for long periods of time, dealer statedcluster needed to be replaced. The ignition module failed three times.the three coils and the computer were replaced.the vehicle still fails to start due to crank shaft sensor failure.
The digital dashboard in this car fails intermittantly.sometimes it fails on startup, and sometimes while the car is moving.upon failure the dashoard is black, with no way to determine the speed of this automobile.sometimes the failure lasts for a few minutes, and somtimes for hours.on one trip i had no speedometer for 4 hours.i believe that fhe failure of the speedometer is a safety issue.i was informed by an employee of the local general motors dealer that failure of digital dashoards in gm cars happens often and is expensive to repair.i was given a figure of approximately $650.00 to repair my dashboard, which would require that it be sent to the factory and fhat i would not have the use of my car for 2 to 6 weeks.since the speedometer is a component of the digital dashboard, and certainly related to vehicle safety, i believe that general motors should be held responsible for this cost.if not required to be responsible for the full cost, gm should at least be required to participate in the cost of this repair.

I was on internet and found a section that had stated a paint peeling problem witholdsmobiles and it had stated that the gm manufacture would furnish a free paintfor the cars that had this problem.. The car that i own is a 1990 oldsmobile cut.sup.in.sed.4d.if this is a true fact could you please let me know. No safety defect mentioned in summary.
I take good card of my car.in the last year i have had 4 oil changes, new tires and rims, an alignment, new brakes and rotors. On04/20/2001 i had a oil change and asked penske auto to look atmy struts and suspension because my car felt and little differentthan usually, and again about 06/05/2001.this time i asked the service manager to look and he could find nothing wrong.on 06/15/2001i was on the interstate going about 65 miles an hour and had a few more miles to go but at the last minute decided to pull of on a exit to check a price of a product.i slowed down for a pedestrian, and as i got to about 10 miles a hour i felt a bump and lost allsteering.luckily i was able to stop the car with out wrecking or hitting the pedestrian.i got out of my car and found that the back part of the front a frame had fallen and the motor which had pulled the steering column apart.if i had not exited the interstate before i was suppose to i am sure i would be dead, also i am lucky i did not kill a pedestrian.i have contacted oldsmobile and they told me that they were aware of the problem but only recalled the cars in 20 states and my state was not one of them.they know that its problem existson cars 1988 to 1990 and early 1991.olds cutlass supreme,chevlumina, pontiac grand per and buick regal.i have a case # with olds c05115278 and have been working with larry waldrick at 1-800-442-6537 he is trying to be helpful, but is getting nowhere. If i lived in iowa they would of warned me that mycar was dangerous in 1997 and fixed my car, but since i live in ne and my car tried to kill me,i am getting the run a round.oldsmobile told me to get my car to the dealership and they would look at it.i did on 08/02/2001.they say they will only pay half, and to this day 08/23/2001 have not gotten me a written estimate.i just want to protect the people in the other 30 states who have not been warned of these killer cars.
