THIS CAR IS AN ELECTRICAL NIGHTMARE. THE INTRIGUE SEEMS TO HAVE SO MANY OF THE SAME ALERO PROBLEMS, BUT NO RESOLUTION FROM GM REGARDING THEM. VEHICLE CONTINUALLY WILL: NOT START, START AND THEN DIE, HAVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER GO HAYWIRE (ALL GAUGES DROP TO THE BOTTOM, THEN JUMP BACK UP, LIGHTS COMING ON THEN GOING OFF - ABS, CHECK ENGINE, SERVICE ENGINE, ETC) ADDITIONALLY - SECURITY (PASSLOCK) LIGHT WILL COME ON SOMETIMES WHEN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER GOES NUTS, AND THEN WILL STAY ON. THIS OFTEN LEADS TO A NO-START CONDITION. IF BATTERY IS DISCONNECTED FOR A FEW MINUTES, THIS WILL USUALLY RESOLVE THE ISSUE. SOMETIMES, WHEN THERE'S A NO-START (NO CRANKING) - TURNING THE CAR TO ACC, AND THEN MOVING THE SHIFTER THROUGH A COUPLE GEARS, WILL RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WHEN THERE'S A NO-START (WITH CRANKING) - THIS CAN EVENTUALLY BE RESOLVED BY DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY FOR A LONG TIME....

THE IGNITION SWITCH -- WHICH WAS REPLACED IN 2012 WITH A NEW GM DEALER PART -- TURNS BY ITSELF TO THE ACC SETTING WHILE DRIVING (ENGINE CUTS OUT AND POWER STEERING LOSES POWER). I SUSPECT THAT THIS IS RELATED TO THE GM IGNITION SWITCH RECALL PROBLEM, BUT SINCE THIS MODEL IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST, I AM ENCOUNTERING A CHALLENGE TO GET IT REPAIRED. PLEASE PHONE ONLY -- NOT AN E-MAIL USER. *TR

THE FAN FOR THE HEAT AND AIR CONDITIONING KEEPS FAILING TO WORK, THE FRONT TURN SIGNAL EITHER BURNS OUT IN 4 DAYS OR WON'T WORK AT ALL EVEN WITH PROFESSIONALLY INSTALLED ALL NEW BULBS.THE ENGINE KEEPS RUNNING EVEN WHEN I REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION. *JS

MY VEHICLE STARTED TO SMOKE AS I WAS DRIVING HOME. I HAD TO PULL OVER ON SIDE OF THE ROAD. A FRIEND TRAILED ME ABOUT A QUARTER OF A MILE AND WE NOTICED SMOKE AND FLAMES COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. MY CAR WENT UP IN FLAMES. *TR

ENGINE AND EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL STOPS INSTANTLY. EVERYTHING SHUTS OFF. DURING RESTART THE VEHICLE CRANKS LONGER (5-6 SECONDS) BEFORE STARTING AND MISSES FOR 3-4 SECONDS. THEN RUNS STRONG AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. SOME TIMES TURN SIGNALS WILL STOP WORKING AFTER A RESTART AND OTHER TIMES THE TURN SIGNALS WILL STOP WORKING WHETHER THE VEHICLE STALLED OR NOT. AT HIGHER SPEEDS (45MPH +) THE VEHICLE WILL FREQUENTLY SHUT OFF BUT INSTANTLY COME BACK ON. *TR
