1 Hazard Flashing Warning Light Unit problem

Failure Date: 09/12/2008

The directional signals and or hazard lights do not work. It is not a continuous thing but a sporadic. I can be driving down the street go to turn on my directional (either left or right) and it will not work. I can then get to my next turn and they might work. It has been doing this sporadically for a couple of years now and checked to see if there was any kind of recall for this. I found a recall back in 2003 & 2004 for the Oldsmobile alero, grand am and malibu, but not for the Oldsmobile Intrigue. I was wondering if there are other complaints for the Oldsmobile Intrigue having this failure. The last incident was sept. 12, 2008. Before that date I never kept track, but now am tired of the signals not working properly. I wait for the day the signals do not work and cause a major accident because someone thinks that I am going straight at an intersection and am actually intending on turning.

2 Hazard Flashing Warning Light Unit problem

Failure Date: 08/01/2004

I purchased a 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue used in February 2004. After using the hazard lights in August 2004, there have been problems with both the turn signals and the hazard lights. The hazard lights will not work at all anymore without continuously holding the button in manually. The turn signals work intermittently. They will work fine for a while, and then completely stop. This occurs on almost a daily basis. The only way to correct it is to repeatedly press the hazard light switch over and over which confuses other drivers and takes attention away from the road. This is a major hazard when trying to turn from busy streets. We have been trying to find a new hazard switch for the vehicle.
