Front Suspension Wheel Bearing problems of the 2000 Oldsmobile Alero

The brake light kept coming on. After having the brakes serviced the brake fluid remained low. Then ,the rotors and the brake line were replaced three times. Vehicle started to make noise, and currently the wheel bearings were defective.

Front tire area was making lots of noise. Took it to dealer for service to check it out - thought it might be power steering problem. They told me it was the brakes. I did not believe this was the problem. Took the car to a transmission shop to check that. He heard the noise and thought it might be the wheel bearings. We took it to another mechanic and he found that it was the wheel bearings and said that it should not have needed to be replaced - that they usually last over 100,000 miles (I only had around 60,000 miles on the car). The other problem is that the heater/air conditioning fan switch does not work on the first two speeds - only on the middle and higher speeds. I work with a man who has the same problem on the same make/model/year as my car.

I purchased a 2000 Oldsmobile Alero in June of 2002, since the purchase I have had nothing but mechanical issues. The first being brakes/rotors being replaced twice a year, then my head gasket went, tires wear too quickly, and now my service engine light, abs light, no traction light (which does not work), change oil light is on, and now I am having problems with my wheel bearings, and cv joints, the car actually makes grinding noises when turning to the left and often sounds and feels as if I have a flat tire. I have had all of these repairs done and the car was fine for 1 week and now all of the problems are back except for the head gasket. Did I mention I also had to have the power steering pump replaced as well, I feel that for the price I paid and the research I have done, there are many others that are having the same difficulty as me, when I read others problems, I feel like I am reading about my car. This was my first car I had ever purchased and feel that mine and my family's safety is at risk because you never know when something is going to happen and I am about out of money replacing parts. Please look into anyone who owns a Oldsmobile Alero and give me some advice. Thank you.

Front wheel bearing and hub assembly was replaced.
