Fading/dimming of interior lights and exterior lights, failed power window, 4 fuel injector failures.

So much for investing in american-made vehicles. I, like over a dozen others who took the time to file a complaint, am experiencing the flicker and dim of all lighting during the evening hours - especially when the weather's colder. It is unnerving to me, and I'm sure to those drivers around me, to drive with questionable exterior lighting. And, as others have said, GM does not view this as a "safety issue". what say they have their spouse, or their child, drive a vehicle with this same "not a safety issue" and see if their view doesn't change" I work, and with daylight savings time, this means I am travelling home in the dark -- with my one-year-old and nine-year-old in the car with me. None of this matters to the folks at GM. Because they can point to the age and mileage of the vehicle to get them off the hook, they are. The fact that they issued a "bulletin" regarding this issue in feb01 doesn't seem to matter. $650+labor for a new alternator may or may not resolve the issue, but that, apparently is my money to invest in a possible, but not guaranteed, solution. Judging from the other filings here, it doesn't sound too promising, so I'm left with the debate of dump this money to *maybe* fix the problem or let it be until something bad happens" my car is too old and has too many miles for this to be considered something for which they, GM, will assume responsibility. I will never buy GM again.

Car exterior and interior lights will dim and then brighten while driving at night. Seems to act up more in colder tempertures but is still acting up in warmer weather. Fan speed for air & heater will flucuate. They have replaced the altenator but it didn't correct the problem. Also having probelms when starting up the car. Acts like it is "missing" but no engine check light came on. Dealership tried running a fuel injector fluid through it but hasn't corrected the problem.

My 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue has an ongoing problem with all interior lights that operate when the headlights are on. The headlights as well as the dash lights, dome light, trunk light, etc all flicker/dim dramatically and intermittently and at the same time whenever they feel like it. It has been attempted to be repaired 5 times by the dealer, and is now at the Oldsmobile tech assistance level. Parts such as the dealer module and the alternator have been replaced to no avail. Olds is saying that there is an existing tac case #3668071 for other 1999 Intrigues experiencing the similar problem across the us, but no fix is available. All the while, I am being told to drive the car and be patient. I am concerned about driving at night as these lights may someday just not flicker, but totally go out! olds has not offered any info other than that they are working on this at the engineering level, and that they suspect it is a computer problem that needs a software fix. I am just upset that I spent thousands of dollars on something that I feel is potentially very unsafe! and getting worse. Any assistance rendered would be greatly appreciated!
