Faults:
I bought my Alero in 2004. When I bought the car, I really liked it. But soon after I bought it, my engine oil had mysteriously disappeared. The engine started knocking & the car's engine was fried. Lucky for me, I had just bought the car, so they had to fix it, under lemon law.
After that it ran OK for a while, then it started to misfire. I fixed that with a tune and changed spark plugs. Then the car started to vibrate only when it was stopped or on a hill. The shop told me it was the motor mounts. Still haven't fixed them; I don't think it's going to fix the problem.
Then the fuel pump went out; cost me 800$ to fix it along with the shot rotors.
Interior is falling apart.
Rear view mirror fell off twice.
Inside dome light has fallen out. Won't go back in.
Driver's side window will not roll up.
Trac light comes on all the time.
The car is all over the place when it hits a bump.
The most annoying thing about this car is the vibrating.
I can't wait till I get rid of this car!!!

If the dealer "over charges you twice as much as the car is worth" (as you contend), why on earth did you buy it? Do you like paying too much for cars?
