2000 Oldsmobile Alero gls review from North America

"Piece of crap"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

This car was a nightmare. I owned it for 6 months and had to trade it in because of all the problems. It had relatively low mileage. The car is a good looking piece of crap.

The list of things that went wrong:

Tires would not keep air in them, even sealed.. poor hub design... I came out one day to 2 flat tires more than once.

Trac light, ABS, check engine light came on within 1st week I owned it. Simple wheel bearing, but cost $250 to fix... before I traded it in same problem again...

Left break had to be totally rebuilt twice- $300 each time, and my mechanic said rear breaks would need replaced within next few months, these were replaced when I bought car 8,000 miles ago!

Passenger side window stopped working, then that window magically began working again and drivers side window stopped working... mechanic said another $250 fix!

Dash board crinkled up like in everybody else's reviews.

Oh, I'm sure there were other things, but I kind of lost track, I was a nervous wreck, never went 2 weeks without some warning light going on and was in the shop at least twice between every oil change.

This car is a poorly made money pit and unsafe. Anyone who is thinking of buying this car should be warned... I will never buy another GM product again! Their engineers must have their head up their you know what!!
