2003 Oldsmobile Alero GX review from North America
"American Junk!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Air bag had to be replaced because the horn would get stuck.
The brakes and rotors were replaced 3 times.
I have this bad creaking noise coming from the brakes now.
The interior rattles bad. Fit and finish SUCK.
The AC Compressor had to be replaced because of grinding noise.
The suspension is now making a BAD popping noise and will have to go back to the shop YET again.
General comments?
The car is a very nice looking car and I tried to over look some of the problems, but they won't stop coming. Its one thing right after another.
I would not recommend this car to anyone. Unless you get it cheap and don't care about a car with on going problems. This will be the last GM car I will ever own.
