So far nothing has really gone wrong with the car yet. When it gets cold outside, the gas gauge will not work properly, until the car has completely warmed up enough. Just the regular maintenance that it needs like oil change, fuel filter, and so on.
This car has great acccelleration, the car does not hesitate what so ever, the car shifts great without thinking what gear in needs to shift up to next to speed up.
I am very pleased with this car, I drive it 45 miles each way everyday to and from work, and it does great on gas, what a fuel saver.
I just recently bought a 2000 Alero with 99577 miles on it. The engine and car have been taken care of very well, atleast that is what it looks like to me. Since having the car for one week I have put 600 miles on it easily and have noticed that the mileage I get is around 23-25 mpg. For having so many miles on my car it is in excellent condition.
