2002 Oldsmobile Alero GLS from North America - Comments

"There is an obvious reason Oldsmobile discontinued this car!!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Replaced the front wheel hub assemblies three times now and about to do it a fourth time.

Vehicle is always running hot but mechanics have no idea why that is.

Front brakes and rotors have been changed three times within the last 17000 miles on a car driven with care!

Buttons in console falling off and have even had to be replaced.

Low tire pressure light is ALWAYS on even after checking them and knowing they are all the same tire pressure.

ETC...

General comments?

The car handles nice and has a decent amount of power for that type of car.

However, the cost to keep this thing moving and working properly is becoming too much to deal with.

Oldsmobile never "discontinued" the Alero; the only reason it went away was because the Oldsmobile brand itself ceased to exist. In fact, the very last Oldsmobile ever built, on April 29, 2004, and now in the R. E. Olds museum, was -- an Alero GLS sedan.
