| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Our 2001 oldsmobile silhouette has had numerous issues. the issues are placed in a close chronological order. all events have occurred after 50k miles with the exception of the power door locks. the dealer took care of all recalls. the power door locks intermittently lock and unlock. this problem has been to the dealer over 4 times. the first time the dealer replaced ignition switch wiring harness and the last time the dealer replaced a chafed wire under the passenger seat. the other times the dealer could not isolate. the problem still occurred. we got tired of bringing it to the dealer. the drivers side seat heater had failed. at 66k miles, the transmission went out. it was due to a faulty sun gear. i had to replace tie rods on the vehicle twice on each side. once around 70k and once around 115k. the fuel ascending unit failed around 90k. on the passenger side i had to replace the wheel bearings and the cv axle. lights in the heater controls have blown and the only way to replace them is to solder new bulbs onto the control module. the blower motor failed on 1st and 2nd speed. we experienced the same engine overheating issues as seen by other individuals at mycarstats.com. this relates to the cooling system. i had three separate issues stemming from this. the first failure was a blown head gasket. about 8 months later the upper manifold gasket blew. six months later another cooling system failure blamed on the lower intake manifold. many of the repairs where costly. the lower intake manifold failure was never fixed. we decided to pass this gm piece of junk on. it had 137k miles. most of the miles driven where highway, very few city and stop-and-go. *jb |
