problem #1

Dec 202006

(reported on)

Alero GLS 3.4L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 110,000 miles

I got off of work at 11:30 pm went to start my car and nothing no clicking no groaning not a sound. Everything else worked, just not the most important, starting it!!! I later found out that it was the cars security system malfunctioning and it shut me out from starting it. I also found out that this happens a lot. And people wonder why Oldsmobile went under.
