2001 Oldsmobile Alero ALeroGLS review from North America

"Never own one again"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Many problems: brakes 3 times

Rotors 2 times

heater blower only works on 4th dot, lights on dashboard always on

service engine soon constantly although dealership can't find problem hazard light switch manufacture warranty-replaced

hit a bump dome light falls out, battery exploded one time

windshield washer tank leaks fluid out cannot check transmission fluid no dip stick has to go to garage

carpet very cheap

doors freeze shut at slightest cold weather

fuel pump went-no warning driving down road and shut off

trac-off, anti-lock brake light on front wheel sensor replaced

low tire pressure always on and constantly resetting new tires full of air.

Cigarette lighter broke-did work then quit.

General comments?

Very costly vehicle I wanted this car because it does have a nice look drove nice and gas mileage. No better mileage then my previous Delta 88.

Constant monthly trips to garage dealership knows me on first name basis.

And I have always been persistent on well maintenance of my vehicles so it is not from lack of care. saved to buy this car 5,000.00 plus trade in so I wouldn't have a payment. still paying like a car payment no exaggeration 100-150 dollars a month for car maintenance and repairs.

Have always owned Olds. and never had the money racked into one like this one- (even had a delta 88 1999 with 245,000 miles sold it and people are still driving it-over 300,000 miles on it.
