2002 Oldsmobile Alero GLS review from North America
"LEMON!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Dash is wrinkling and turning color.
Air Conditioner doesn't work on first 4 settings.
Tires make a rubbing noise.
Seats are cracking badly.
Alternator went out at 22,000 miles.
Rotors done 2 times.
Pass-lock won't let me start the car half the time.
Coolant leak.
Oil leak.
Passenger side window clips broke and motor went out.
Occasionally the speedometer will go all the way to the right and stay there.
Now the engine is making a loud noise that sounds like a helicopter.
General comments?
And the car is only 1/2 paid for... I will NEVER AGAIN own a GM. This car isn't even worth what I owe, and have paid to have it fixed.
