Fog lamp assemblies mounted in lower front bumper are defective. I feel they are poorly constructed as well. The solid glass lens separates from the housing. Driver side fell off my van going down my street. Upon inspection, passenger side fell apart in my hands. If this glass housing were to fall off vehicle at a higher rate of speed, it could possibly injure someone.

Dim or flickering headlights - I saw that you are investigating dim or flickering headlights on Oldsmobile intrigue sedans 1999-2001. I have a 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette that is having the same problems. It is most notibly apparent when you are idle in drive at a stop light. As you reach higher rpms the problem is less apparent. If you travel for a couple of hours the problem seems to get worse and shows up more regardless of RPM.
