NHTSA Complaint #10257224 — 1998 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE

FATHER IN LAW WENT INTO THE HOSPITAL AND ASKED US ( DAUGHTER AND SON IN -LAW) TO MOVE HIS CAR TO ARE HOUSE WHILE HE WAS GONE. I DROVE IT TO OUR HOUSE AND HAD A HARD TIME TURNING LEFT. I ASKED MY FATHER IN-LAW HOW LONG THIS HAD BEEN LIKE THIS AND HE SAID ABOUT 3 YEARS. I STARTED ASKING FRIENDS AND LOOKING ON THE INTERNET FOR SOME ADVICE ON WHY. I FOUND SEVERAL POSSIBLE CAUSES AND SOMEONE SUGGESTED THAT I CHECK FOR VEHICLE RECALLS. I FOUND ONE THAT FIT PERFECTLY, I CALLED THE OLDSMOBILE 800 NUMBER AND GAVE THE LADY THE CARS VIN # AND SHE SAID THAT ALTHOUGH THE CAR WAS LISTED THE VIN # WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, BUT SHE SAID I COULD TAKE IT TO A GM DEALER AND THEY COULD INSPECT IT TO SEE IF IT FIT THE RECALL AND COULD BE ADDED I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE RECALL DIDN'T APPLY AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. SO I CALLED OLDSMOBILE BACK AND THEY SAID I WAS GIVEN INCORRECT INFORMATION. I WENT THROUGH ALL THE VEHICLE INFO AGAIN AND THEY SAID THAT THEY COULDN'T FINE THE RECALL AT ALL (I GOT IT OFF YOU WEBSITE RECALL #03082). *TR
