The rotors warped at 30,000 km.
The brakes needed replacing at 48,000 km.
The window seals were inadequate and caused migraine inducing headaches, which took several attempts to fix.
The CD player began to skip after using burned CDs, even though I had asked the dealer to call GM Canada, and was assured it would NOT do that.
Th heater broke at 60,000 km, and again took several attempts to fix, which is problematic in -40 weather in Saskatchewan.
The tilt steering broke at 61,000 km.
The cruise broke at 64,000 km.
The signal lights broke at 65,000 km.
This car began to break down immediately after the 60, 000 km warranty was up - good thing I had the extended package.
This car is far from reliable.
There is a known fault with premature wear on the brakes, yet there is no compensation for having to replace parts early.
"This car is not worth the money I paid for it!!"
I think that if the Alero never existed, Olds would still be in business.
My car also started to go south at the 60,000 mile mark. In fact, 60,114 miles my trac off, ABS, and Service Vehicle lights came on and have stayed on ever since. I've had to replace the wheel bearings and brakes, and both started going bad again after six weeks, now my check engine light is on as of this morning, and my suspension is constantly creaking, and the tires make ungodly noise. All in all, I regret the day I forked over the cash to buy this car.
