1999 Oldsmobile Alero GL review from North America
"Not very reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Drivers side window motor broke got it fixed under warranty. a couple months later is just stopped rolling down now it is off track and will have to replace entire window.
Rear window motor broke was fixed under warranty, but used an after market part and won't roll down as far as opposite side.
Calipers needed replaced.
Air conditioner went out-twice.
Battery cables need to be replaced they won't stay tight and the car won't start often.
Factory speakers blew in the first month we had it probably due to the bad cd player which wouldn't play most cds.
Power seats broke the first day we had it.
General comments?
The cars looks nice and handles well, but a lot seems to go wrong with it for a car with 60000 miles on it.
