problem #1

Oct 102003

Alero 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 17,800 miles
Since my purchase of this vehicle in October of 2003, I have been disabled numerous times. Engine just quits. Low trac light comes on and engine shuts down. Vehicle has been to dealership number of times and they say nothing is wrong. I do plenty of thruway driving and now coasting off to the sides. Also brakes grind when it is wet outside.
