1999 Oldsmobile Cutlass review from North America
"A fixer upper"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Disappointed.
I own a 1999 Oldsmobile Cutlass. The coolant leaks, the car hisses, a paint peeled after one week even around the mirrors, console sticks, car stalls, and the leather is wearing quickly. I have replaced the intake manifold, alternator, thermostat, water pump, coolant relay switch, serpentine belt (still makes noise), Brakes and Rotors (within 2 months). My cousin has an Alero and she is experiencing some of the same problems. When you call the dealership they just try to sell you another one or say they thought I knew about the problems before I bought the car. These problems are common in Oldsmobile's. I will not buy another one. My car is still leaking coolant so I have parked it for the last month and catch rides where I need to go. No one has been able to fix the car not even the dealers. On a positive note the car is roomy.
General comments?
If you have money to burn by and oldsmobile.
