problem #1

Alero 6-cyl

I bought the car 1 year used, and the brakes had just been replaced by the dealer. Not even a few months later the brakes started to pulsate and the steering wheel would shake upon braking. I replaced the rotors and brake pads with the best on the market, thinking it would last a long time. A few months later the same problem happened again. They should do a recall on the brakes. Also the drivers side window motor broke and was replaced. The hazard switch was replaced, the turn signals fixed due to an electrical problem, the gear shifter knob was replaced because it fell off for no reason. The antilock brakes/service vehicle soon lights come on at random times when there is no problem at all. The transmission is leaking as well. I see that many many people with this car have the same problems and Oldsmobile should do a recall on all these things since they are not just random occurrences.
