“REAR DEFROSTER STOPPED WORKING. WENT TO DEALER FOR ANOTHER ISSUE AND DEALER TOLD ME SOMEONE PUT IN AN INADEQUATE WIRE TO MODULE AND CAUSED IT TO MELT. WENT TO 3 JUNKYARDS TODAY AND FOUND 6 ALERO AROUND THE SAME YEAR THAT ALL HAD THE WIRE MELTED TO THE MODULE. FOUND THIS ONLINE SO HERE I AM.. DEALER TRIED TO POINT FINGER AT SOMEONE ELSE BUT ITS OBVIOUS THIS IS AN ALERO PROBLEM. I'LL BE CONTACTING THE DEALER AGAIN TO SEE WHAT THEY'LL DO ABOUT IT BEFORE IT CAUSES A FIRE. *TR”

“SEVERAL FAILURES OF EITHER FRONT BRAKES OR REAR BRAKES REQUIRING COMPLETE REPLACEMENT. FAILURE HAPPENS AFTER LESS THAN 20,000 ON EACH SET OF BRAKES. THERE HAS BEEN AT LEAST 3 WHEEL HUB REPLACEMENTS ON DRIVER SIDE AS WELL AS 2 WHEEL HUB REPLACEMENTS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. BOTH DRIVERS WINDOW AND PASSENGER WINDOW MOTORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE.... UPDATED 04/11/13 *BF”

“JUST BOUGHT MY 2001 ALERO RIGHT OFF THE CAR LOT, BUT NOW THE RIGHT SIDE PASSENGER MIRROR ISN'T WORKING, LIGHTER ISN'T WORKING, CALLED THE CAR LOT TO TELL THEM THAT AND HE SAID THAT IT COULD BE THE FUSE WAS BAD! SO I BUY A USED CAR FOR THREE GRAND AND MINOR STUFF STARTS HAPPENING TO IT.... HOW MUCH IS A FUSE?? *TR”

“ABOUT A YEAR AGO, MY HUSBAND AND I NOTICED THAT THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW WASN'T ROLLING UP AND WE HEARD IT SNAP. WE WERE ABLE TO PULL THE WINDOW UP AND HAD IT THERE FOR ABOUT 7 MONTHS UNTIL THE WINDOW CLIPS BROKE AND THE WHOLE WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR. WE BOUGHT A NEW WINDOW AND A NEW WINDOW REGULATOR BUT NOW IT'S DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS CAR? THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WHEN LIVING IN MINNESOTA. IT'S ALMOST WINTER TIME AND WE DON'T HAVE A WORKING WINDOW OR AT LEAST ONE THAT STAYS SHUT AT ALL TIMES. SHOULD OLDSMOBILE HAVE TO RECALL ALL WINDOWS AND REPLACE THEM FOR FREE? PLASTIC CLIPS? HOW WOULD YOU EVER THINK THEY WOULD HOLD UP? I'M VERY UPSET BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE A LOT OF MONEY AND THESE WINDOW ISSUES ARE COSTING US A LOT OF MONEY. *TR”

“TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 OLDSMOBILE ALERO. THE MODULE THAT CONTROLS THE REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER, LOCATED UNDERNEATH THE BACK PANEL BY THE REAR WINDOW, BECOMES VERY HOT AND MELTS. IT MELTED THE CONNECTION AND THE BOX THAT CONTAINS THE MODULE. AS A RESULT, THE DEFOGGER DOES NOT WORK. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN TO A DEALER OR REPAIR SHOP. THE CONTACT HAS FOUND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FOR THIS FAILURE AND BELIEVES A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 80,000.”
