"Can't be done in one sentence"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

All of the power windows do not work any more. One motor does not work. The bracket that holds the window has broke on two of them and the piece that the cable holds on to in the fourth window is broke. It has been this way now for a few months.

Now the fan switch for the air in not working on the two lowest settings.

The cruise control button broke.

Finally, the blinker working improperly.

General comments?

The car would not be that bad if it would stop breaking.

You and I and so many others have the exact same issues. Must be nice working at GM repair shops. Job security at its finest.

I have a 2000 Alero GLS that I've replaced three window motors the first two years I owned it. Now ALL four window motors are broken (with a baby in the back seat). That's 7 times! I'm wondering how many others are having problems with their window motors?

Ill add another to the exact same things. First my motor went out in my passenger window. Then one of my back windows brackets broke so the window wouldn't go up and down right. Next my cruise control button stopped working. and finally.. my ac does not work on the first two speeds. also if I have my ac on cold and its on a higher setting, my cds won't work because they get to cold to play. gm trapped us good.

I have the same exact problems as the rest of you. Windows don't work, first two speeds on my heating and AC stopped, a weird clicking in the brakes, and now finally my hazard lights don't work. If this is happening to all of us, why aren't these recalls.

Can't wait to get away from GM.

My Alero, let's see My dash is rippling up, I have fixed a passenger side window, now my drivers side is broke. My brakes are starting to click in the pedal, my fan for the a/c and heater is starting to make a noise, my turns signal only works half the time. Basically the car is junk and I have told everyone I know NEVER to buy one.

I know this is like two years later and I don't even know if you still have your car (the person whose turn signals only work half the time) I have the same problem and found that if I click the hazard lights on and off a few times when the turn signals are not working, it is a temporary fix for the problem.
