Defogger Problems of Oldsmobile Alero

Rear defroster stopped working. Went to dealer for another issue and dealer told me someone put in an inadequate wire to module and caused it to melt. Went to 3 junkyards today and found 6 Alero around the same year that all had the wire melted to the module. Found this online so here I am. . Dealer tried to point finger at someone else but its obvious this is an Alero problem. I'll be contacting the dealer again to see what they'll do about it before it causes a fire.

2001 Alero gl had problems with the computer, cruise control, and the floor was leaking. ** answer required***. The vehicle consumed excessive amounts of gas, the vehicle only got 208 mile per tank of gas. The rear defroster works intermittently. The abs light, traction light and service engine light illuminated at the same time. When this happened the vehicle lost traction and abs brakes. On two occasion this failure caused the consumer to lose control of the vehicle. The rear seat slid forward when the brakes were applied abruptly.

While driving consumer turned on the heat and the defogger, and both failed to come on properly. Consumer smelled an odor coming from the vents. Consumer drove vehicle to the dealer, and mechanic determined that the intake manifold was leaking and needed to be replaced. . . .

I have researched this problem and there seems to be too many people whose windows jam than fall down into the door. I have personally paid over $400 two times to have this fixed. Also another incident with this car are the blinker which sometimes work and sometimes don't. Just this week another problem with the air conditioning. The blower is not working therefore no defrost in this cold weather.

While driving home from work, the backseat of my car started on fire. This was due to the rear defogger modular. Thank god no one was in the back. It cost 4,000 to repair. My rear defogger was repaired and about a month later, it wouldn't work again. We took it back only to find out that the wire harness was starting to melt again. We also have had problems with a banging in the front passenger side. We can't find the cause of this problem.
