The wheel hub assembly has gone bad in this 2004 Alero. We had hit a deer with our 2002 Alero and two weeks before we hit that deer that car's wheel hub went bad.

Front wheel hubs. I purchased this car new in 2001 and had to replace the front hub and bearing 3 times. The most recent repair was in 5/2007 to the left hub which was just replaced in 02/2006 with under 15000 miles. Chevrolet service department stated that warranty only covers parts for 12000 or 1 y ear, and only offered a 10% discount of 40. 00 on a 410. 00 repair job.

Abs light came on. Taken to dealership and was determined to be wheel hub/bearing/abs sensor. Dealership replaced wheel hub/bearing.

1999 Oldsmobile Alero - consumer's car was involved in an accident and the hub assembly that holds the rear passenger struts sheared off. While driving at 65 mph the rear wheel broke off and the car turned sideways and went off the highway. There was no impact, but the car did flip side ways. The accident caused the front suspension to break. The vehicle has not been looked at by a mechanic. The consumer contacted the manufacturer and was told there was no recall on this vehicle for this part. A police report was taken. There was one injury.

2001 Alero (2 dr. Coupe) I have been on several sites and am finding many Alero owners having the same problems that I have encountered over the last couple of years. Fuel pump, wheel hub assemblies, intake manifold gaskets, power window failure(grinding/breaking clips/regulators), serv engine and traction control lights constantly on, electrical problems, brake problems etc. It is my belief that olds knew they weren't making this car anymore, and sent a sub-par product out into the market "hoping" to get away with as few recalls as possible. I have numerous complaints filed with olds and general motors. General motors has gone way out and offered me a $500. 00 certificate towards the purchase of a new vehicle. Give me one reason I should go through another nightmare like this one. Recalls have never been issued on any of these complaints because it would probably cost millions of dollars for them to fix the problems. I constantly wait to see if any class action suits involving these vehicles occurs as I will be one of the first to jump in. What's the saying. . . "if it looks like dog crap and smells like dog crap don't step in it, it's probably dog crap". There's a defined problem with these vehicles and gm should be taking responsibility for them.

1999 Oldsmobile Alero. The contact stated the hub bearings on both sides of the front end went out. There was a noise coming from the front end, the contact took the vehicle to a garage. The mechanic told her of the problem, and said if she drove it much longer there would have been an accident. The head gaskets also blew out the engine. The vehicle was leaking antifreeze into the air system. The vehicle is currently at the garage being fixed for the head gaskets. Also, fuel pump went out while driving on the road. The vehicle was towed to the garage. Then, they replaced the fuel pump. The contact stated , in addition, there have been electrical problems. The computer system had to be reset a couple of times. This has happened within the past 12 months.

Front hub (drivers side) went bad at around 48,000 miles, dealer replaced under warranty. Aprox. One year later both front hubs went bad (at just over 60,000 miles with less then 12,000 miles on drivers side hub) cost was around $500. 00 each to replace.

Engine check light flashed on/off while driving at any speeds. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, who informed the consumer that driver's side front hub needed to be replaced. Consumer was concerned that the wear was less then 31,000 miles.

2001 Oldsmobile Alero - need replacement of wheel hub assemblys on both sides with only 57,000 miles! service vehicle soon, abs and trac off lights are on all the time. Absolutely the worst front suspension I've ever had in a vehicle. Also 'misses' at around 2000 rpms - like it can't decide which gear to be in. Bought it used from dealer and warranty is out, but working with a good mechanic to hopefully get problems fixed at my expense (dealer wanted $500 to replace each wheel hub assembly). Should not be having these issues with a relatively new, well-maintained vehicle.

Front hub bearing wore out prematurely. As a result, a grinding noise was produced.

Side mirror spring mounts break on rough roads at low speeds.

Front seat does not lock in position, front driver side bearing defective, driver power window malfunctions.
