Help! My 1998 Intrigue GL is starting to fall apart. I have several problems that I cannot solve. First, my AC blows out of the top vents, bottom vent, and defrost all at the same time regardless of what shows on my automatic climate control display. Sometimes, it will work correctly for about 2 or 3 minutes but then reverts back to blowing out of all the three areas. Also, I have a whining noise that comes out of the front end when I turn. It sounds like a belt or a bearing squeeling. I thought it was coming from my alternator and replaced it but it did not solve the problem. This problem only occurs when the outside temp is cold. In the summer, no noise, the colder it is the louder the whine. Also, my cruise won't stay on and my rear windows don't go up. Not only will they not go up but they wont stay up. As I drive they slowly slip open a couple of inches. I read some advice on this forum about beating on the window motors and will try that tomorrow. Any advice (besides trade it in which is looking like the best course of action) would be appreciated. Thanks.

Replying to: jellyroller (Sep 03, 2006 8:53 pm) Whining noise...wheel bearing?? Though usually it's a groaning noise. Windows...think all that is on the driver door (had that worked on because the windows would not go down). Cruise control....wonder if that falls under the heading of electrical. I am no expert, obviously, but have had some of the same problems. If you haven't already, do a search for electrical, cruise, etc, on this forum...same problems others have had and really good advice. Good luck

I don't understand why people are surprised the Intrigue is not a long lasting car. Its a GM and afrter 7-8 years these cars are ready for the crusher. I owned a 1999 that got totaled for 4 years and in that time I was in the shop countless times.
