1999 Oldsmobile Alero GLS review from North America

Dome light is falling out.

Lazy seat belt retractors.

Replaced full hub assembly on front driver's side wheel.

Two weeks later they had to replace the full hub assembly on the other side.

Have replaced brake pads twice.

Is currently in getting something else done to the brakes, not sure what they're doing this time (although they have started shaking, which is one of the reasons I brought it in)

Once when driving about a month ago, car completely lost power, like the gas pedal stopped working, speedometer went CRAZY back and forth, all lights on dash went off, then everything went back to normal.

Now I'm finding that when I drive the car, it feels like it is being driven by someone learning to drive standard, and it's an automatic. Something is wrong with transmission, not sure what though.

I still like the way this car handles, and the way it looks. Also very comfortable.

Dome light falling out is kind of annoying. Tends to happen while driving.

I need something that's a bit more reliable though, and the transmission thing while driving is freaking me out a bit. However, I have n other car to drive and need to get to work and school somehow, otherwise I would not be driving it right now.

I will admit though, my dealership has been great. I have been given countless free oil changes, and this time, because the service guys know me, I got a free detailing.
