2000 Oldsmobile Alero GL review from North America
"The car is sleek, but has way too many problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Paint started chipping on the hood and side of the car very soon after buying it.
Trunk does not close properly anymore.
Radiator cap had to be replaced.
Service vehicle soon, change oil and low tire pressure lights came on at about 10,000 miles for no reason, even though there is nothing wrong.
Inside lamp fell out of its holder and will not go back into place.
General comments?
Just a horrible horrible car. I wish I had never bought it. It seems like no matter what repairs you make, something else always goes wrong. I will never buy another GMC car again.
