1999 Oldsmobile Alero GLS review from North America

Within the first 15,000 miles--

vinyl on back doors replaced

fuel gage sensor replaced

water leaking in floorboard

brakes and rotors replaced

speedometer/tachometer surge, but

car does not move when going

from a stopped position

driver's side window gears replaced

15,000 to 60,000 miles--

vinyl on dash wrinkled and peeled

intake manifold leak

clamp on overflow tank replaced

ignition lock replaced

water in floorboard fixed again

speedometer/tachometer continue to

surge, but car does not move; no

one can find what is causing this

car does not start on first time;

must give it gas to get it to

start; no one can tell me why

alternator and battery replaced

when driving, indicator lights

(ABS and security system lights

in particular) flash on and off

console pops open its own

fan blower motor replaced.

Overall, this car is fine when it does not have a mechanical problem.

The extended warranty was the best purchase I have ever made.

I would not recommended an Alero to anyone.

I have moved several times since owning my car and the service has been good.
