2000 Oldsmobile Alero review from North America
"OK"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I loved the car when I bought it I still do, I have had some problems with it like most people that own these do, but nothing real major so far knock on wood. I have had my car for 7 years and bought it brand new with 2 miles on it. The first thing to give me a problem was the theft lock on the ignition, it would not let me start the car, the dealer said the igntion sensor was bad and was replaced after it cost me $800.00 I haven't had a problem since. The second problem was the turn signals that had a mind of their own, after I replaced the hazard switch I haven't had a problem. I have had brakes put one twice, but no rotors as of yet. Now I have a noise in the front wheel base and am not sure what it is I am hoping it is nothing serious. Other than those few issues I have been happy with my car. I hope it lasts me a few more years!
