2000 Oldsmobile Alero review from North America
"Runs well just falling apart"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The window motor on the driver's side window went out twice under warranty and a third time after the warranty expired. I will not pay $300 to have it replaced. The dash was replaced under warranty due to bubbling. There is a constant rattle in the dash. The replacement dash is now bubbling and peeling apart. I have replaced the rotors 4 times. The paint on the spoiler has oxidized so my dark blue car has an almost white spoiler. Too many problems.
General comments?
I know why Oldsmobile is no longer.
