general problems of the 2004 Oldsmobile Alero

I have exhaust coming into the car through the vent when thermostat is in use, my back seats are not in the clip and flip up with no problem and I have a 8 year old son who sits back there, my break pedal will lock and I cannot apply pressure, my dash lights just stopped working I believe the ecm is bad, my headlights go from bright to dim, car does not seem to keep acceleration power very well.

Airbag no deployment loss of power steering brakes to floor car died recall ignored prior and still today after set up now off their schedule friendly Chevrolet rich gardner.

The hazard and turn signals doesn't work at all. I bought a new turn switch, put a new fuse in and everything and nothing works. When I drive on the road the turn signal doesnt come on and sometimes it causes a lot of problems.

The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or independent mechanic for diagnostic testing or repairs. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 133,000.

My turning signals work, but when not in use the signal noise does a rapid beep, beep noise, even when I drive and sit idly.

Bought car a year ago, it had issues with turn signals not working. I googled issue and replaced hazard switch 125,000 miles. Now at 155,000 timing chain slipped, it's replacement worth more than car value. I heard after 2004 a change was made because of issues but no recall. Car was pulled to end of driveway before taking a close out of town trip, turned off to check oil and such, wouldn't start. Estimate received to repair 2,500$. I am furious!.

The hazard light button fell into the dashboard and the blinker signals only intermittently work. They will sometimes stop working while in the middle of a turn, other times will work for a few days, and then randomly stop again for no consistent amount of time. Upon researching this issue to repair I see that it is very common with other cars of this make and model.

I was driving on the freeway and my car turned off without warning. My car turned off (power sheering locked up) I made it to the side of the road but not before almost getting hit by a 2 different semi-trucks. I was stranded on the freeway for 4 hours with a new born baby. I have yet to be able to fix my car due to this issue.

I received the notification about the safety recall on 2004 Oldsmobile Aleros, and the dealer, after I had scheduled an appointment, told me they didn't have to do the recall, but I just had to buy another key. That's not the way I understand recalls. I don't buy something, but it should be they fix something. I've never heard of a dealer arguing with the customer about something like this either, but I'm going to seek legal advice. However, I felt it was necessary to contact you first, based on the language of the recall notice.

I own a 2004 Alero Oldsmobile I purchased the car used in 2008. It later only had one recall which was for the ignition issues. While the car is on and in drive the key is still able to be pulled out of the ignition and the car still remains on and in drive. I am also experiencing my blinkers not working 100% of the time, (NHTSA campaign # for this issue is 03v327000). I can press the hazard light button quickly and frequently while pushing on the signal stick and that sometimes will make them work, other times that doesn't work and neither my signals nor hazard signals work at all. Lastly, and most frightening, in the midst of driving the vehicle has stalled, and will jump as the rpm's bounce back and forth, (NHTSA campaign # for this issue is 07e021000). There had been several times this has happened and a few times the vehicle actually did shut off in the middle of driving, I've had to push the car off the road, and wait 10-15 minutes before I attempt to start the vehicle again. The car was tested for over 3 hours and they found nothing wrong with the engine or battery, which is why I am certain it is the fuel pressure recall. I took the car in for the key recall I brought this up to them as well, (as my windows also do not work), I purchased a new gas cap as instructed hoping that would fix this dangerous situation with the car stalling out, it did not fix the issue. There are recalls that my car falls under and that I am experiencing, I asked why these life threatening recalls weren't able to be fixed on my car, I was told they weren't listed on my VIN. Please help my vehicle and the millions others be updated with the NHTSA to request the manufacturer to review this more closely in relation to the ones actually affected by these issues. These issues are extremely dangerous and pose as a threat not only to myself and family but to other drivers around me.

The turn signals randomly stop functioning. They can go from working to not working and back in any given drive. I have replaced the fuses multiple times, but it quickly starts doing it again.

The blinkers only work 5 % of the time. I have almost been hit in the rear several times due to this issue. Neither blinker will work. I notice a recall was done on the 2001 olds Alero for this problem. I have a 2004 olds Alero that is having the same issue. The blinkers do not work due to a defective hazzard warning light switch. A recall should be done on 2004 olds Alero.

The dealer and manufacturer were notified, but offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 87,500 and the current mileage was 88,000. The VIN was unavailable.

The signal does not work all the time and if someone is backing up and they can't see you the honk does not work. People do not know that you are trying to turn back turning signal is not work at all times.

This vehicle has been experiencing general motors passlock issues since it had 60000 miles on it. I can no longer trust it to start, and have to leave it run when I have to be somewhere on time.

My Oldsmobile Alero just hit 60000 miles, and is not starting and is stalling. I am not sure what the problem is yet, but it seems electrical. The security light has come on when it stalls so I am not sure if they are related.
