NHTSA complaint: 1998 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE — ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
I WAS THE SECOND OWNER AND BOUGHT THE CAR IN FEBRUARY 2003. HAD TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR TWICE. KEPT HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE TEMPERATURE SHOWING HIGH. 06 BOUGHT A RADIATOR. SUMMER OF 08 GOING UP ESCONDIDO MTN TRAVELING TO CALIFORNIA... CAUGHT FIRE. HAD TO REPLACE THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. ENGINE TEMP KEPT READING HIGH AND SERVICE COULD NOT FIND THE REASON WHY. REPLACED RADIATOR AGAIN AND TRAVELING TO NM MAY 2009 THE TEMP KEPT READING HIGH AGAIN AND I HAD TO PULL OVER AND THEN STAY IN SECOND GEAR WITH THE HEATER ON FULL BLAST. FINALLY HAD TO REPLACE THE VEHICLE. THE INTRIGUE WAS A VERY NICE CAR WITH LEATHER SEATS AND DROVE REALLY GOOD WHEN IT WAS WORKING CORRECTLY, BUT SINCE THE ENGINE FIRE I'VE HAD NOTING BUT TROUBLE AND MAINTENANCE REPAIRS. CAN I BE REIMBURSED AT ALL FOR ANY OF THOSE EXPENSES? *TR
