2001 Oldsmobile Alero review from North America

After we first got it, the shifter button fell out.

Then the radio won't work and still doesn't work when rear defrost is on.

It will spit out cd's and say check cd.

Traction sensor went out and wouldn't allow the car to run two days before our wedding. Had to take it to the dealer and spend a fortune.

Oxygen sensor went out.

Driver window will not go down.

My headlights wouldn't go off one night, so I pop the hood to look at it, and the alarm goes off and all the lights just start flashing like crazy. It woke up everybody around me. Had to leave battery disconnected all night.

Have water stains on carpet behind both front seats.

Back passenger door hard to open at times.

Air condition only works on the last two speeds.

I could go on forever baby.

Now it broke down on us at a gas station. I pumped gas, went to crank it up and it wouldn't start. I had to get it towed home. I still don't know what the problem is. I'm scared to take it to the dealer because they always give you the runaround and never really fix it. Come on, I know ya'll know what I'm talking about! This is the worst car you could ever buy. Oldsmobile really screwed us over. Thanks a lot!

Just when you thought you have fixed just about all that can go wrong on the car, hey, just my luck. Something else went out and now I have to fork out another $1000. THIS CAR SUCKSSSS!!!

My advice to anyone who owns an alero, put a brick on the gas pedal and send it over a cliff. Trust me you'll save yourself a lot of headaches in the end.
