2004 Oldsmobile Alero Last 500 review from North America
"I currently own 2 Alero's. It used to be 3 before my daughter got married."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had no repairs needed so far on the car.
General comments?
This version of the car has a tighter suspension which makes handling quick and accurate.
The only annoying characteristic is a noisy drivers side window when it is both windy outside and traveling at 55mph or more.
The V-6 provides plenty of power, but is not the most economical. I have been averaging about 23mpg on highway trips.
I find the interior both good looking and comfortable.
I love owning one of the last 500 of the Alero's. I think it is great 4 passenger car with sporty looks and excellent handling.
