I don't post here often, but I check the boards every now and then. Reading this makes me think I should put my Alero up forsale, and I'm being serious.
2001 3.4 w/ 46k miles
22k miles--- hazard switch replaced under warranty
23k miles--- driver window needed new motor, replaced under warranty
30k miles--- front pads and rotors warped, replaced under warranty
40k miles--- front rotors are warped again, still haven't done anything about it
42k miles--- low coolant light came on. Wife stopped by the dealer and the dealer topped it off, but after reading here it sounds like I might have the infamous gasket leak you guys are talking about.
45k miles--- SES light is on, autzone scanner says "P0442 Evap Emissions Control Leak". It's not the gas cap and I haven't had time to look any further into it.
I bought this car only because I got what I thought was a terrific deal. I bought it in December of '02 w/ 18k miles on it for $10,500, which I guess still isn't a bad deal, but if I'm going to have all these problems I'm not certain I want to hang on to it especially seeing as though I no longer have a warranty.
