2003 Oldsmobile Alero LX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
-Service Vehicle Soon/Trac Off/Anit Lock lights are always on
-Service Engine Light after having heads serviced, intakes redone twice in one year and light is still on
-push rod replaced
-Outer Tie rod on the passenger side
-Valve cover gaskets done twice
-One day I was going down the road and my horn starting blowing and would not stop and since then it will not blow and my alarm does not sound when you lock the doors, but it does lock.
General comments?
This car only looks good I wish I would have done my homework on this car, but it has learned me a lesson before I buy another car I will research it first. This car needs to be pulled off the market I understand that with every car there are going to be some problems, but this is ridiculous problems after problems and just when you think you have it fixed the same problem arises again. BEWARE.
