Body problems of the 2000 Oldsmobile Alero

Appropriate handling- submission from re 2000 Oldsmobile Alero vehicle defects the consumer stated he has been unsuccessful at getting the recall repairs rectified free of charge. The consumer referenced recall # 00v140000.

Faulty adhesive used on the dash; causes buckling and peeling of dash pad. It is starting on the driver's side and spreading to the passenger side of the dash. This has not been corrected, as no dealer or repair shop will touch it. All say to go to gm with issue. Gm will not fix it either.

I have (2) 2000 Oldsmobile Aleros on which the vinyl covering on the dash has detached from its back and has created wavy wrinkles. A web search shows this is a widespread problem in Aleros.

Consumer states vehicle would vibrate and the front wheels would grind when brake are applyed, dealer notified and replace the front rotors and the brake pads. Consumer states brakes made a squeaking noise before grinding. Also, the console cover latch failed.

Consumer took car into dealer 4 times for water leaking into vehicle. They did not know how water was getting into vehicle. Whenever it rains or snows the back and front rugs, and the trunk gets soaked, dealer has adjusted doors, replaced cracked sill plates, replaced door deflectors, reinstalled sealer to water deflectors, and replaced door window channels.

Front lights adjusted. Also interior roof light loose. Seat in second position will not catch. When it rains, it floods my car.

Consumer states vehicle leaks water in the front and rear causing many electrical problems with the radio, heater, lights, brake lights, and wipers, at any given time these components quit working, dealer has offered to buy vehicle back on two occasions, however consumer would lose money if the transaction were to take place.
