2001 Oldsmobile Alero GLS review from North America
"The car handles well and has been reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Upper intake gasket twice while under warranty.
Blower motor resistor at 38,000.
Warped rotors.
General comments?
The 2000 & 2001 models seem to be of a higher quality than the later 2002-2004 models. Guess this is what happens when the folks building them know that as soon as the last one rolls off the line their jobs are gone.
