I have a 2002 oldsmobile intrigue 3.5 with 10,000 miles. When i drive it i get sleepy, headaches andmy face turns red. I suspect that there are exhaust fumes getting into the passenger compartment.

Power steering failure. When pulling out of a tight parking place the power steering started making noises. After exiting the parking place the power steering is sluggish, but not all of the time. This is a safety issue as some time you can turn with no problem, other time it takes additional effort to move the steering. You never know what to expect!! i suppose it could totally fail at any time also!! the oldsmobile garage (burke) has ordered a new power steering pump and will install it next week at a cost of five hundred and ninth four dollars to me. They say there have been no recalls or service bulletins on this problem. Old parts will be available when removed next week .

Consumer had the vehicle towed to the dealer for inspection, andmechanic determined that the steering pump/housing shaft, and bolt needed to be replaced.

2002 olds intrigue gx.bought it 3 weeks ago.not sure if this happened all at once or gradually over a period of about 3 hours-- my spouse was driving the car.power steering stopped working when turning to the left; still works for right turns.it is very difficult to turn at city driving speeds (10 - 35 mph), and nearly impossible to turn when parking.power steering fluid level is okay.no repairs yet by the dealer.we should not have to pay for repairs!!!this poses enough of a danger, even if you know of it in advance and are strong enough to turn the wheel manually.i believe gm did a recall for a similar problem on their 1998 intrigue, in 2004.are they just waiting until enough people are injured in the 2002 models to decide to do the right thing?we shouldn't have to pay $1300 for the dealer to fix a faulty/cheap/irresponsible design on gm's part, one that persisted for four years after the initial design.
Dt*:the contact stated there was a loss ofpower steering without warning.the vehicle was taken to a dealer for inspection who determined the rack and pinion failed.the steering rack and pinion was replaced which corrected the steering problem. The outer tie rods were also replaced.updated 05/23/06.
Whiledriving at low speeds or stopping steering wheel vibrated. Dealership couldn't duplicate problem. The vehicle was taken to the dealer several times but they were unable to correct the problem.the problem still exist.
