Brake Electric Antilock problems of the 2000 Oldsmobile Alero

The anti-lock brake system is inoperable, it is causing the engine to shut off at any particular time while driving. So I'm afraid that this problem was cause by the Oldsmobile manufacturer, and the situation need to be check into.

Brakes have been replaced twice and rotors have turned five times. Dealer stated it was a design flaw in the brake assembly.

Defective rotors had to be repaired on both front and back. Dealership said not covered by warranty.

Bought this vehicle new on 8/3/00, since then the rotors have been replaced due to excessive warping 3 times. Problem still exists. Warped rotors prevent the abs braking system from functioning properly. Car shakes violently when braking at highway speeds resulting in extended stopping distances and creates a major safety concern, some accidents have already occurred, must someone's life be claimed before something is done? I have contacted the manufacturer who was very rude and disconcernig with regard to this problem. In researching this problem, I have discovered that these cars and other makes are very prone to this problem and gm has no permanent repair for it. The quality and safeness of the Alero is unacceptable general motors should be pressured until they can fix this design problem.

Brakes and transmission problems; brakes pulsate, metal to metal noise. Abs brakes/rotors needed to be replaced. Also, transmission locked into gear, no shifting.

I am being charged for brake replacement at 23,000 miles by a dealer,so I called for another opinion. When I called two other dealers and Oldsmobile themselves (bruce) I was told this is a common problem. I asked if this is common why am I paying for something that should be warranty, they said brakes are consumable and if this problem reoccurs they would cover it than but for now I must pay to have the brakes replaced and rotors repaired $207. 50.

This Alero is junk we have not been happy with it since we bought it. Two paint jobs, brake work,transmission shifts too hard, car run hot ,long list would like to have a car that isnt a hunk of junk.

When depressing brakes vehicle would go into extended stopping distance. Brake rotors have been replaced by dealer three times . Please provide further information.

Brakes rotors have been replaced three times. Also, when depressing brakes vehicle goes into extended stopping distance. Please provide further information.

Brake rotors were replaced three times. Also when depressing brakes, pedal went to the floor, resulting in extended stopping distance.

Why cannot gm give people a suggestion to what to put on these cars to stop these things from eating up brakes/rotors. Gm gives run around. Dealership is in complete agreement these cars have problems so why can they not tell you what to put on them to stop this problem. If they can issue a bullitin on them, then they should have some plan in what they plan on doing to solve this. Going in every 3,000 to 5,000 miles for replacements/turning is not normal. If people let these things slide, they are going to be in big trouble. Gm builds the cars they should come up with some solutions to solving the issue before it gets out of hand. My car has been in eight times for replacement/turning. It never gets better. Something has to be done on this. I paid cash for this car. I have lost my butt and will continue more so when warranty is off these cars. Now gm is telling me these are not under warranty. This car has been to a gm dealer since I had 12,000 miles on it. Now no warranty. Now they want us to pay another $800 to up warranty when they cannot even fix this. Please, please help us.
