AIR BAGS
ON FRIDAY 10/6/2000 WHILE MY SISTER DRIVING THE CAR, THE AIRBAG LIGHT IN THE DASHBOARD COMES ON WITH NO REASON. MY SISTER THEN DESIDED TO TAKE IT TO THE OLDSMOBILE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT MORNING. THE NEXT DAY, WHILE STARTING THE CAR, THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED IN HER FACE. I TOOK THE CAR TO ARNOLD PALMER OLDSMOBILE IN CHARLOTTE. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME THEY WILL CHECK ON ANY RECALLS BY THE MANUFACTURE. AFTER TEN DAYS, THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NO RECALL AND THE PROBLEM WAS FROM THE HORN MODULA. I THINK THY DID NOT WANT TO BLAME IT ON THE MANUFACTURE. I WOULD LIKE AN ANSWER RATHER THAN A COVER UP.

CAN DRIVE VEHICLE MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY WITHOUT ANY MAJOR PROBLEMS, WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED AND NOT DRIVEN FOR ONE DAY (SUNDAY) THEN ON MONDAY MORNING WHEN I TRY TO START IT THE BATTERY IS DRAINED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY WEEK - JUST INTERMITTINGLY. HAVE HAD IT TO SEVERAL MECHANICS LOOKING FOR ELECTRICAL SHORT, OLDSMOBILE DEALER IS AT A LOSS AS TO WHERE THE PROBLEM MIGHT BE. HAVE CHECKED ALTERNATOR, BATTERY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW HOW THE PROBLEM CAN BE FIXED. THERE ARESEVERAL OTHER CUTLASS CIERA'S IN OUR AREA THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM - NO ONE IS ABLE TO LOCATE THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM..

I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY TWO REPUTABLE REPAIR FACILITIES THAT THE ROTORS SHOW SIGNS OF DEFECTS, WITH METAL CHIPS INSIDE, AFFECTING MY BRAKING AND A DANGER TO MY SELF, ANY PASSENGERS AND ANY ONE ELSE ON THE ROAD! I WAS ALSO TOLD BY SOMEONE AT OLDS THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR SUCH A PROBLEM ON MODEL YEARS 1994, 1996 & 1997, WHY NOT 1995??? I HAVE CONTACTED OLDSMOBILE AND THEY SAID MY CAR WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, WHICH I KNEW AND SINCE JULY 17TH I HAVE HAD NO FURTHER WORD FROM THEM REGARDING THIS SAFETY ISSUE I BELIEVE THEY NEED TO FIX ASAP. *AK

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:ALTERNATOR/GENERATOR/REGULATOR, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE
EACH YEAR SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THIS OLDSMOBILE I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE MY ALTERNATOR. I PREVIOUSLY OWNED A 1989 OLDSMOBILE AND HAD TO DO THE SAME. THE HESITATING/STALLING PROBLEM IS WHAT ORIGINALLY PROMPTED ME TO GET RID OF MY 1989 AND PURCHASE A NEWER VERSION. I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR THREE AND ONE HALF YEARS AND AM JUST NOW EXPERIENCING SIMILAR PROBLEMS. THE PROBLEM WAS NEVER IDENTIFIED/CORRECTED IN THE 1989 CAR BUT HOPEFULLY, THE DEALER CAN CORRECT THE PROBLEM IN MY CURRENT CAR. I DO AN AWFUL LOT OF DRIVING AND DO NOT WANT TO END UP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH A DEAD CAR, NOR DO I WANT TO ENTER AN INTERSECTION AND HAVE MY CAR CUT OUT ON ME. I HOPE THIS IS CORRECTABLE! *AK
