2001 Oldsmobile Alero review from North America

Two days after buying this car the check engine light came on and the fuel injector had to be replaced. Two days after injector was replaced the car would stall while driving and had to be returned to have injector replaced a second time.

Brakes and rotars have had to be replaced twice so far.

Driver's side window will not go down-- until I take it to be repaired and it works fine.

Heater control knob has broken twice.

Radio volume knob has broken.

Intake manifold gasket replaced after low engine coolant light repeatedly came on.

CD player won't accept CD's at times, or CD's get stuck in player.

Loud clunking noise when turning or hitting bumps?shocks?

Fog lights and tail lights blow out.

Windshield has been replaced twice-- rock magnet! Since windshield replaced dash has a squeaky rattling sound.

This car cleans up very nicely. It is very stylish and sporty--that is what drew me to the car.

There is a lot of leg room and trunk space.

I was lucky to get the extended warranty with all of the problems that have had to be fixed.

The biggest disappointment I have had is that I bought this car new thinking I would have a safe reliable vehicle, when in reality my old car was more dependable.

My warranty is almost up and I am seriously thinking of trading off this car before I end up spending the amount of another new car in repair costs.
