Absolutely Nothing!!!

General Comments:

I bought this car in May of 04.

I have never had a problem with it, and I have put 30,000 miles on it in little over a year.

I work for an auto parts company, so I happen to know a lot about cars.

Don't know what the problem is with all your cars, but maybe if you took good care of them, you would not have these problems.

I keep strict maintenance on my vehicles, and happen to LOVE this car.

It looks nice, rides nice, and I bought it with 35,000 miles on it.

If you shop around, you can get a good price on one.

If you all were smart enough, you would all check CAR FAX to see vehicle history before you pay an exorbitant amount of money for it.

I only paid 7,000 for mine, and I couldn't have asked for a better deal.

Since January of 2005, I have had to replace the power steering, the Pass Lock system locked the ignition, forcing a bypass through the security system that allows it to work, but without the security system. Replaced both the front wheel bearings. All between about 59,500 and 61,500 miles. So est. $1,000 worth of repairs since January, and it is currently the beginning of June 2005. I have been an owner of the car since July of 2004, and have put an est. 4,500 miles in that time. I heard from the repairman at the auto shop that my car was the 4th Alero at his shop alone that required the wheel bearing replacement (on the left side in particular, which was repaired one week before the right on my car).

General Comments:

I enjoy the power of the engine.

Isn't the best at gas mileage, but isn't a gas hog by any means.

Handles well.

Sound system is excellent.

No issues with paint peeling on the stereo or seats tearing. In fact, the interior has held up well.

Faults:

Brakes have gone out several times.

Belt around A/C had to be replaced ($500)

Window motor had to be replaced ($300)

Seats have worn badly

Wipers do not wipe efficiently.

Seat mechanisms have slipped on a number of occasions.

Panel lights - brake, service engine, low tires, etc. - constantly on.

General Comments:

The Alero is a very peppy and sporty car and it really does look nice; however, it is the biggest piece of crap I have ever purchased. The car has had more problems than any new car I have every bought. I would NEVER, EVER buy another GM car again. I curse the day I ever saw this car and the person who sold it to me.
