1999 Oldsmobile Alero LX review from North America
"Nice Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problems with my Alero is that the wheel bearings need replacing every year. I drive approx 50 000 kms a year, so I really don't mind the upkeep to the bearings and brakes.
General comments?
The car is great on fuel and has never let me down during the past 250 000 kms. Cars need to be maintained properly to avoid costly expenses. Change your oil and service your brakes and the car is a dream.
