2003 Oldsmobile Alero review from North America
"This car is one big Lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have change my Brakes every 13,000 mile. I have went through a set up Rotors once. The inside pads wear within 13,000 miles. I had change the passlock security/ignition sensor at 74,000 miles $500.00. Recently the car won't start wiring troubles. Most likely with the fuel pump. Rear defrost stopped working. The bearing need replaced every 20,000 miles. Shocks and Struts are very poor and need replaced at 40,000 miles.
General comments?
The car looks very nice, but electrical and front end work is a must thoughout the life of this vehicle.
