1999 Oldsmobile Alero review from North America
"The car is OK"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power rear power windows quit working. They are easy to repair, almost always a broken "regulator", which is track, motor, and cable assembly. 55.00 ea + 10.00 shipping at a place called "upanddownmainstreet.com" - the cheapest I found. They arrived within a few days, and although I'd never changed (or seen) one, replacing them proved to be a simple process with just the use of a screwdriver and a small socket.
General comments?
The car is reliable.
