2003 Oldsmobile Alero review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had no problems with the car until just after the 36000 mile warranty was up. At 38000 miles, the bearings were going bad. After speaking with the dealership, this is not uncommon for Alero's.
When replacing the bearings, it was found that the brake pads were worn out as well.
General comments?
Other than these two problems, I enjoy the car. It runs well and is very affordable.
