Alero

  • 93,500 miles
Secuirty light on 1999 Oldsmobile Alero comes on and car will not start for over 10 mins. This causes me to fuel my car with the car engine running because I do not want to take the chance of it not starting. Sometimes it takes 3 trys before it starts and that is over 30 minutes of wait time. One day it may not start at all. Ongoing problem with the other Alero owners. Oldsmobile needs to issue a recall on this problem.

Twice I have had get my rotors resurfaced or replaced, my gas gauge everytime I fill up it bounces up and down and the clear coat on the hood of the vehicle is coming off. This vehicle needs to have a recall on the brake system due to a lot of people that I have talked with and many on the internet complaining about having to replace there rotors or get them resurfaced way before the manufactured time limit. I bought my car with 29, 000 miles on it and have had to resurface or replace the rotors twice. Is this normal"?"
