NHTSA Complaint #10288596 — 2000 OLDSMOBILE ALERO

WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THIS CAR THE BACKSEATS WERE NOT ATTACHED TO THE CAR. THE DASHBOARD IS PEALING UP ALL THE WAY AND THE PAINT IS GONE FROM MY GEAR SHIFT. BOTH DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER WINDOWS HAVE STOPPED WORKING. THE DRIVER SIDE I HAD TO GET FIXED FOR INSPECTION COST ABOUT $300. TIRES AND BRAKES NEED REPLACED CONSTANTLY. LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIGHT UP FOR NO APPARENT REASON. BLINKERS DON'T WORK MOST OF THE TIME AND WHEN THEY DO IT IS THIS HORRIBLE LOUD CLICKING NOISE. CD PLAYER/RADIO STOP WORKING RANDOMLY. AC ONLY WORKS ON 3RD SETTING. REAR DEFROST DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. FOG LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN ON AND BULBS ARE BRAND NEW. TRUNK WILL NOT OPEN WITH BUTTON FROM INSIDE CAR OR KEYLESS ENTRY. MY TRUNK RANDOMLY COMES OPEN FOR NO REASON AND ONCE WOULD NOT LATCH TO SHUT FOR A FEW DAYS BUT THEN RANDOMLY LATCHED SHUT. CAR LEAKS WATER IN THE FRONT AND BACK. RECENTLY MY CAR WON'T START EVERYTIME IT RAINS. I TOOK IT TO AN AUTO PLACE AND THEY RAN IT THROUGH THE COMPUTER AND COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. NOW IT'S AT A WINDSHEILD PLACE BECAUSE THE MECHANIC SAYS ITS LEAKING WATER INTO FUSE BOX. GLASS PLACE IS SAYING THAT IS NOT IT EITHER. I AM AT MY WITS END. IT DRIES OUT AND WILL START AND AS SOON AS IT RAINS WILL NOT START. I DON'T WANT TO PAY ANOTHER MECHANIC TO HAVE THIS FIXED. I SEE WHERE OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT FUSES AND WATERS LEAKS. I HAVE HAD IT TOWED TWICE IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS AND HAD $600 WORTH OF WORK DONE ON MY CAR. I CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY A NEW CAR. I'M VERY AGGITATED THAT SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS CAR AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT IT. I EVEN COMPLAINED TO THE BBB ABOUT THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM TO NO AVAIL. WHY IS NOTHING BEING DONE? *TR
