Overview & Reviews
The biggest news for the 2002 Alero is an all-new four-cylinder engine on GX and GL1 models. Redesigned 15-inch wheels, a revamped interior console and two new exterior colors round out this year's changes.
- Sleek styling, brisk performance and handling, ergonomically intelligent interior, well-equipped standard model.
- Hint of cheapness to interior bits, numb steering, resale value may suffer.

Disgraceful - 2002 Oldsmobile Alero
By TKincaid - December 5 - 10:00 amI gave this car poor on its rating to get back at Oldsmobile for not fixing my Alero. The Aluminum Wheels make a grinding/humming noise. Oldsmobile has not had enough complaints for a recall so turn off the radio, roll up the windows and listen as you drive at 10 to 15 mph. Olds. does not deny that this is a problem but will not stand behind their product. There are 3 types of wheels and the aluminum ones are making the sound. Let Olds. know or write BBB. This is no way to treat a customer.

i love my Alero - 2002 Oldsmobile Alero
By michelle - October 24 - 9:46 pmI recently had a baby and feel so safe in my Alero. I wish now I would have purchased a sedan instead of a coupe, they look just as good as the two doors. I love my car, it is the best decision that I have ever made.

By Squashtowner - October 24 - 10:00 amOnly real problems...crappy BF Goodrich (Garbage?) tires. They are noisy. And, the front pads wore out at 35000 km.

Cant part. Its my baby! - 2002 Oldsmobile Alero
By Love it! - September 23 - 5:56 amI love my car! I have had it going on 3 yrs and wish it would last forever the way it has been running. From the start I bought it with less then 6,000 miles ( which I must add got an AMAZING deal on it). The only thing I can say so far that has gone wrong is recently (at 50k) my blinkers have been not working ( I think its just a short in the wire?). Other than that, besides retards parking next to me and putting dings in the car, its great! I love this car and would keep it forever but we are looking into possibly selling it to get a newer, AWD crossover (at least my husband keeps telling me we are selling it but we will see about that). Like I said its my baby!

Fun to drive but its the little things - 2002 Oldsmobile Alero
By Eric - September 15 - 6:00 amI bought the car about a year and a half ago, and had the brakes done and found out i needed a wheel bearing. Less than a month later it went out again and I needed to get two more after that. Many of the fuses have gone out also (horn) and the lights like to burn out in a short amount of time. License plate, side markers and blinkers.

Driving Performance of Olds Alero - 2002 Oldsmobile Alero
By Earl B. Stiff - May 7 - 2:00 amThe Olds Alero is a smooth riding car with ample speed to move you down the hiway. Power brakes (antilock) have been very helpful in avoiding near accidents.
