NHTSA Complaint #10070116 — 1992 OLDSMOBILE CUTLASS

THE CONTROL PANEL FLASHES ON AND OFF AND THE BRIGHTNESS CHANGES WHEN HEADLIGHTS ARE ON. THE DIMMER CONTROL HAS NO AFFECT AND THE PANEL FLASHES BRIGHTLY AT NIGHT. THE GAS TANK RELEASES FUMES WHEN IT'S FILLED AND A SUCTION PRESSURE BUILDS UP IN THE TANK, CAUSING AIR SQUEAKS AT THE GAS TANK CAP. THE RIMS LEAK AND THE TIRES (WHICH ARE BRAND NEW) HAVE TO BE FILLED CONSTANTLY. THE HEATER BARELY BLOWS HARD ENOUGH AND THE AIR CONDITIONER DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. AN AUTO MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT HIS 92 CUTLASS SUPREME HAS THE SAME EXACT PROBLEMS. I DIDN'T MENTION THE CONTROL PANEL TO HIM AND HE ASKED IF MINE WAS MALFUNCTIONING LIKE HIS WAS. THE STEERING WHEEL IS OFF CENTER AS WELL, AND HAS TO BE TURNED TO THE LEFT EVEN ON A STRAIGHT ROAD TO KEEP THE TIRES STRAIGHT
