The authors study curvature properties and harmonic vector fields on the 4-dimensional oscillator Lie group \(G\) endowed with a left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric \(g_\lambda\) of neutral signature, where \(\lambda\) is taken in \(\{ 0,1,2\}\). For each \(\lambda\), the authors determine conditions for a left-invariant vector field on \(G\) to be a geodesic vector, or to define a harmonic map, or to be a harmonic section. In addition, it is shown that these metrics give rise to class \(\mathcal A\) (i.e., the Ricci tensor is a Killing tensor) manifolds, which are not of class \(\mathcal B\) (i.e., the Ricci tensor is a Codazzi tensor).
