2000 Oldsmobile Alero GLS review from North America
"All is good, cars will have its defects, take care of it and it'll be good to you!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well lets see when I first got the car about 6 months ago, it overheated causeing antifreeze to leak all over my friveway, talk about a bad day especially getting the car that day, luckly my dads a mechanic and fixed it, then about 2 months later I realized that the dome light comes down if you touch it the wrong way, then that same day was when I was leaving work to go home that when I took off it didn't seem like it had the power, and the engine light was flashing, my dad hooked it up and it was running on 5cyl. the next day it was fine and it has been ever since. All in all its not a bad car, its my 3rd car and I'm 17, I had a 1990 honda accord for my first and it was great only 108000 then I got a 1998 GMC sonoma, PEICE OF JUNK, 8,200 worth of junk, and now I have the olds, I love it and it gets great gas mileage, 26 city and 32 highway.
