2004 Oldsmobile Alero GX (?) review from North America
"Not ready yet to make a conclusion"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alero 2004 with 45.000 km on it.
This morning I noticed some "grinding" noise as speed was increasing. Brought it to the dealer. Diagnosis was the right front bearing to be replaced, + braking pads on the same wheel are worn out, too. $1.000.
General comments?
Great on gas. V6, up to 35MPG highway, 22MPG city.
Wheels and driver side window are noisy.
