Not all of the Aleros in MI are rusted out. I picked this up a couple months ago in Holland, MI with 124,000 miles. I have done some things ,but overall very solid. The pass side air bag cover was peeling up so I found a good one at the junk yard for 5 bucks and replaced. The leather seats are in real good condition also for its age.

Are they cleanable? Take pictures and post of the interior.

I already cleaned most of it up, but some of it won't come out. Not to mention that there is a nice tear in my driver seat now.

Well, ain't that just lovely? Most places here put plastic over the seats to protect them so that they don't become a grease towel or take any damage.. Have you asked Milzy about the damage to your interior? :banghead:

Anyway, would still like to see pics of how your Final 500 turned out!

I said something about it when I picked it up. I'll get some pics up tonight or tomorrow.

That is not acceptable. It is their responsibility to keep your car in the condition they received it in. The way they handled your car sounds like pure negligence. I would consider small claims court to have them fix it.

Did you try "Dawn" detergent on the seats? It works wonders on grease.

01OhioAlero 07-04-2016 06:38 PM

Yea thats unacceptable. If I had my own shop every car that left would have a quick detail, especially for a repeat customer like you are.

tw0123 07-04-2016 10:29 PM

Not surprising another eff up by milzy motorsports...

This guy is becoming quite unreliable and not worth the hassle... We need to get Ben at wot tech some more business...

Sorry about your car man... Hopefully you can fix the seat cover and yeah, small claims and bbb report for sure...

tw0123 07-04-2016 10:29 PM

Btw... Let's see some pictures and a video of this thing!!! :)

Last night was driving and the car wouldn't go into reverse...well who ever installed the shifter, did a piss poor job. I had to cut some of the center console away so the shifter cable could move the way it wanted. I would also like to say. When I went to pick it up they didn't even have the plastic that covers up the shifter in there. I think I know why too, cuz the Damn thing pops out because once again. The guy who installed the shifter did a piss poor job.

Oh, it is nice to see a Final 500 in lovely shape like that! Hope you can get the issues of negligence fixed, shame to have such a lovely car being treated like that.

Babyblue 07-18-2016 01:20 AM

Well, I went to park in the lot at work and my clutch Pedal didn't go down. Sooo....I forced it down and we'll it went down. At that point a spring hit my leg. Now my clutch pedal has a bunch of play in it.

CharmfulPeace 07-19-2016 06:52 PM

Damn... Sorry to hear that, Blue. Get it looked at at a local shop this time lol!

Babyblue 07-21-2016 12:14 AM

Does anyone know if you can mess anything up if you don't have the return spring in your clutch pedal?

tw0123 07-21-2016 11:23 AM

Have you called milzy?? These issues are ridiculous!!!

Babyblue 07-21-2016 01:54 PM

Yes, I did. He bassicly said, idk why that would happen and those parts are discontinued.

Bahlzeron 07-21-2016 02:17 PM

You're best off with the spring in place. Without it the pedal will rest against the clutch master cylinder, putting a small load on the clutch system and can/will lead to a shortened clutch life.

Bring it to a good mechanic, have them diagnose the cause of the problem, and fix it. The parts may be discontinued, but you can still get em off ebay, or a junkyard.. some newer cars may even run a similar set up (the white plastic part of my shift linkage is from a Cobalt)
