2002 Oldsmobile Alero GLS review from North America
"I love my Alero"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Last year the front driver side wheel bearing went out.
General comments?
I bought this car NEW in 2002, and since then it has been in the shop once because the wheel bearing went out, unless you count minor things like oil changes.
I bought it new and it has 125,184 miles on it today, and I still drive it every day to work and back.
I do not know why people complain so much about the Alero. Oldsmobiles were great cars and it's a shame people don't see that. Maybe if more people would buy their cars new and take good care of them, they would see what I'm talking about.
