1999 Oldsmobile Alero GLS review from North America
"Great features and performance for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The wheel bearings went twice.
General comments?
This car is a great car.
The acceleration is great and it handles like a dream.
The interior feels very good when sitting in it.
I have been in two wrecks with this car and it still handles like new. I have had a couple of minor problems that were corrected by the warinty.
I am a 19 year old male who beats this car to the ground and it still runs great. The engine has been through 35,000 miles of beating and still performs like new.
I don't understand why there are so many bad comments on this vehical.
