Headlights Problems of Oldsmobile Aurora

I notice when I am driving that the head lights will flicker every once in awhile. I also had the dash lights go out on me in the middle of the night, this would be the second time this part had been fixed. A few months later the heating component went out. I have had nothing but trouble with this vehicle since I bought it. This vehicle needs to be recalled or stated under the lemon law.

Clunking noise in front end/undercarraige, on turns or bumps, can be felt in steering, since 15000 miles (noticed sometime after imploded gas tank replacement). Four dealers worked on at least 10 times - replaced steering gear, lubed intermediate shaft, replaced strut bearings, replaced intermediate shaft, replaced rear shock - still clunks over bumps and steering grinding noise is back since intermediate shaft replacement. After steering gear replacement at 26750, severe vibration was noticed; took four attemts (3 dealers) to make acceptable finally at 36137. Headlamps flicker intermittently, generator replaced at 30311, 4 dealers say is normal. Fuel filler door still sticks intermittently, at least 3 repair attempts. Car does not feel safe with front end/steering/underbody clunking - feels like some component(s) is defective or prematurely worn out - each dealer made repair attempt, then when unsuccessful said vehicle was normal. One dealer never roadtested vehicle. Last dealer mechanic said needed rack, service manager said vehicle was normal. 43000 miles now - gm area service manager refuses to do any further repairs.

1996 Oldsmobile Aurora VIN # t4113007 headlights and tail lights began flickering when key was not in ignition and car was off. Contiued flickering while driving. Baterry would go dead unless it was diconnected when car was not operating. Audible clicking heard under left dash during operation and when vehicle was off. When disconnecting the battery cable I noticed the positive terminal was extremely hot. Could represent a fire hazard due to battery being located under the rear seat where, by the way, my children ride. Dealer replaced mall ( multifunction alarm locking and lighting) module at a cost of over $500. I noticed many references to this same problem with other owners of this car on the internet. There was a recall for a similar defect in 1995, but dealer said my VIN was outside the range of the effected vehicles.

While driving at any speed electrical system malfunctioned. As a result, headlights and interior lights failed.

Headlamps dim and flicker while driving. This happened everyday. Dealer recently replaced alternator which appears to have corrected the problem after two days of driving.

Headlights flicker in cold weather about once every 10 seconds. Multiple generators have been installed on the vehicle which have not fixed this problem. I have heard that this problem is very wide spread on this vehicle type. Aurora 3. 5l.

Purchased used 2001 oldmobile Aurora (3. 5l, v-6) on June 24, 2003 with 19,200 miles. Upon leaving the lot I noticed the headlights flickering several times on way home. Called dealer and had it in shop 2 days later. Replaced alternator. June 26th, 2003 after leaving dealer still noticed lights flickering. Called dealer the next week to let them know. They stated it was just a simple change in voltage. Continued to notice flickering. . . So bad it is vert distracting not only to driver of vehicle but other drivers on the road. Took car in once again. Dealer stated that gm is aware of head lamp flickering and is working to correct the problems. Now I notice when my head lamps flicker the voltage screen goes crazy. In the meantime, my warranty is up on sept. 13th 2003. So if they don't find a solution to the problem before then,will I be stuck with paying for it or will there be some sort of recall issued? was told it would be paid for but no written documentation was received. This problem can be very dangerous and could cause an accident due to decreased visibility and distraction.

When vehicle is parked or in use head lights will just come on and off. Contacted dealer.

While car is running or sitting still in the driveway the headlights will flicker on and off, while in motion there will at times be a noise coming from the dash area. The dimmer light on the dashboard will flicker. The only way to stop the noise is to turn the headlights on. During the time the car is just sitting, day or night the lights come on and off at random. Could this be a sensor or a loose fuse?? car taken to jack hayes in akron but could not be determined at that time what the problem was. Am waiting for them to call me but I will in the meantime call them back but was wondering if I could get any feedback regarding if anyone else has reported this problem. The plastic boot under the front bumper has just dropped off due to evidently coming to close to parking curbs. Would appreciate some feedback soon because I am afraid that I will be on the highway and loose power while in traffic. Regards. Joanne oakes.
