2002 Oldsmobile Alero GLX review from North America
"It runs well, but there are a few problems that should not be"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It didn't take long for my wheels to bend. I did not know that just a little pothole would bend the wheels, so I am looking for wheels, but they are so expensive. Three of my wheels are bent. I have to put air in my tires every three days.
The dealer told me I needed brakes at 9,000 miles and instead of changing the pads, they changed the rotors and pads. It was under warranty, but I thought that was strange.
My radio also had to be changed.
The car runs well, but when the dealer told me that there was oil in my antifreeze, I brought it to someone else and found that it wasn't true.
Be careful of those dealers. They change things that do not need changing sometimes.
If anyone knows where I can get some wheels, post it please. I need reasonably priced wheels.
