I have spent more on my car fixing it than I actually paid for it.....first the fuel pump....then it started cutting off again....then they had to reprogram the computer system......then the ignition switch......the fuel pump again.......the shalfs or something...now the signal lights stopped working....now there is a sensor that they cant find...........when i turn my steering wheel all the light in my car come on....my motor just really bad when the car is running...I wouldn't recommend anyone to buy an Oldsmobile Alero....

Alero GL 3.2L V6

my car suddenly dies while driving down the road. i have taken it to numerous mechanics and they'll make up something they think is causing the problem and then i'll spend hundreds of $ 'fixing' it when it dies the exact same way it did before. i've had people tell me all sorta things: the key is loose in the ignition and when it goes over bumps that supposedly loosens the key er some sh*t.. or, the exhaust is clogged, or the fuel injection is broken, or it needs a tune up, or the 1st cylinder is miss firing, or some coil is bad.. need i go on? or do you get the picture?
