| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 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. *ak |
