2003 Oldsmobile Alero GX review from North America

3 weeks after I bought the car brand new, my factory radio/CD player had to have a new seal put in behind it. I noticed my Cd's would quit playing and when I ejected them they'd be wet. I'm gathering the condensation was from the A/C.

My rotors had to be replaced at 17,700 miles.

My fuse block has been replaced twice now from water damage. They now claim they found and sealed the leak, I'll see next time it rains.

It seems to stall and idle weird, especially at traffic lights. I believe this still might be related to the water problem. However, every time the dealer claimed they fixed it, it still does it.

My gages sometimes turn erratic and either won't work at all or will stay on after the car is turned off. This does it quite often when it rains I've noticed.

I have noticed a puddle on the driver's side floor. I will keep an eye on this, not sure if the car is leaking some where like people claim or if it is from my own feet.

Just like other people have mentioned, I do like the looks of the car. I just can't chance it not starting or getting stranded somewhere when it rains!

I know I will loose a lot of money on it, but I am trying to get rid of it before my warranty runs out and I'm stuck paying the bills myself. I will feel guilty selling this outright to someone else. I know I will probably have alot more problems to come if I keep it. Everything I mentioned about has been totally covered under warranty. I have no choice but to trade it in or see if I can file an "Ohio Lemon Law" claim and get the dealer to take it back and pay off the remainder of my loan. If anyone has the same problems or any suggestions, you can email me at oldsmobl88@yahoo.com.
