2003 Oldsmobile Alero GX 2.2 liter

Summary:

Bigger than an import car, it's reliable and inexpensive too

Faults:

Nothing has gone wrong with this car.

General Comments:

This car is good for the money. It has a load cabin and is a little uncomfortable. Worst is the resale value. If you buy this car, plan on holding onto it. By this mileage on my new Passat I had three major problems. No problems on the Alero. I'd say its worth the money. Take care of it and you'll save a whole lot of money over time.

Summary:

Great car - Much better than Grand Am

Faults:

The only thing that has gone wrong with this car since I had it is the windshield wiper sprayers freeze up too easy.

This car drives like a dream!!

I have not owned or driven a 4 cylinder in several years, and was I surprised at the power this car has!

For alero owners with crappy wiper blades gm will replace them for up to 6 months after purchase I did and it made a great difference. If your just going out to buy some get the wipers with teflon coating.. stops ice build up.

Great car, I bought mine used with 18000 km on it.

Couple cosmetic problems:

- rear seat - where the cushion bottom buckles down - its broken.

- the knob for the fan speed broke when it was cold out one day

- front brakes have gone spongy and something squeaks when I press on the brake. Not sure yet what that squeak is yet.

Still have my 5 year warranty, so they better honor it when I take it in to fix these problems.

Otherwise - it drives like a dream.

I had a Grand am before I bought the Alero and there is no comparison. The alero is quiet even starts up fast, but quiet. It is easy to handle, it has everything you could want in a car for less money. You don't even feel the bumps in the road you glide along. I love it and ask myself many times why I never thought of test driving an Olds-both of these cars are made by the same company, but they are two different grades of cars. I will definitely get another Alero. I am really pleased with it-mine is 2004-2 door car-power everything.

2003 Oldsmobile Alero GX V4

Summary:

Great inexpensive family car

Faults:

N/A.

General Comments:

This car is a great value for the money, especially with all of the rebates that GM is currently offering.

The cabin is very roomy for a smaller car.

The safety features are wonderful (better than many higher priced cars).
