1999 Oldsmobile Alero gls coupe review from North America
"What a rip off"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Lets see a couple months after I bought the car the window motor went OK not a big problem then more recently my intake manifold went had to get that and the gaskets replaced cost a fortune then drove it again and blew another gaket got that fixed again another fortune to repair that.. now my secuirty light is blinking again like it has in the past.. have had it looked at and nothing is ever found spend a lot of money getting everything replaced and yet it is still doing it when it comes on I can't start my car for atleast 20 minutes then it takes about 5 minutes for the gas to start getting back to the engine again.. don't get me wrong I do love this car, but too many problems that can't be fixed.
