Tl- the contact owns a 2001 Oldsmobile Alero. The contact stated that while traveling 60 mph the vehicle was placed into cruise control and the vehicle immediately accelerated up to 80 mph before it slowed back down. The contact then stopped to get gasoline and stated that the vehicle would not start back up. The vehicle was towed to a dealer and it was determined that the fuel pump failed on the vehicle. The contact had that repaired, but that did not correct the problem. The contact then took the vehicle to a mechanic and it was determined that the ignition switch, the casing and the relay switch needed to be replaced. That did correct the problem. The contact spoke with the manufacturer regarding NHTSA recall campaign 07e021 (fuel system) and NHTSA recall campaign 03v327 (exterior lighting) however the manufacturer stated that the vehicle was not included in those recalls. The current mileage was 43000. Rl.

Was driving to the store. I arrive park the car turn it off. Go inside for 20 to 35 minutes, I get into the car and start her up and it doesn't start. Noticed that security is flashing again in right corner. Look at manual again same thing turn to run position and wait 10mins. Flashing will stop, turn back to off position and then try to start the car. It then starts but I have notice that this keeps happening to the point where even if the car does start and run the security light will stay on for days and then sometimes may go off. But even now this day August 20, 2014 at 2:06pm the security light stays on and at times the car will not start unless I go through the rest of waiting 10 minutes. Help me please. Thank you, curtis gilbert(931-638-5322).

While sitting at a red light vehicle shut off and would not restart, had to push vehicle off of road, into parking lot, waited a few minutes and restarted vehicle, added fuel to vehicle went inside to pay and when I returned vehicle would not restart. Has continued to fail to start. Diagnosis pass lock system for security causes vehicle to shut off unexpectedly or not start unexpectedly.

When it first occurred there was a security light in the instrument display that suddenly came on (security) and stayed on as I was driving. The next morning as I tried to start my car it wouldn't start. And I looked in the owners manual and it stated that the ignition light starts to flash after turning the key to the on or run position then the ignition needs to be serviced.

I bought a 2001 Oldsmobile Alero in 2008 deployed for a year and half while gone the car sat in a garage came back and it worked fine for almost two years then one day it refused to start. The motor would crank but not turn over and the security light came on. I did the 10 minute security reset procedure per the owners manual and that work once but once I turned the car off it would not start again and the reset procedure would not work again. I have replaced the ignition switch with no change to the issue. The car has now been sitting for 6 months since I cant afford to go threw the process of replacing random parts that may or may not fix the issue. I am now down to my wife's car only with 4 kids. I am still making payments on this car and it doesn't even run and of course the dealer isn't taking it back. There are no guaranteed fixes for this issue.

2001 Oldsmobile Alero. While driving at 65 mph in 5 pm traffic, the car engine shut off and coasted from the left lane to the emergency lane. It was then towed to an Oldsmobile dealership; who said that the fuel pump was the problem for a second time. This car has had many problems. Sometime the car will not crank at all. It also has a leak in the passenger side floor when it rains. The consumer heard about the Volvo problems and the same thing is happening to this vehicle. The engine had only shut off one time. This happened around July 11, 2005. No injuries fires no crash reported. The fuel pump had been replaced 3 times. The fuel pump had an internal short. The vehicle would have to be placed in neutral, would start then die. The ignition switch was replaced. The fuel gauge would fall to empty, and the fuel light would come on. The vehicle would crank but not start.
