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.

  Hunk Of Scrap! GM are theives to have even marketed this DEATH TRAP!!! - 2002 Oldsmobile Alero
  By alderozrjunk - March 29 - 8:20 am

  This is the worst POS on the planet. This was Oldsmobiles last car before they went belly up and I now know why. I bought it used three years old and have had nothing but problem after problem from the front bumper to the rear bumper. Too many problems to name but I will say this. The guy who sold me this POS knew what a Death Trap and it was when he sold it and got his eyes blackened and a broken nose in return after it landed me in the ditch over a mechanical issue that was recalled by GM! I bought it used so there was nothing I could do about it as the "class action lawsuit" in which the lawyers got everything and the owners got nothing was resolved. I WILL NEVER BUY A GM PRODUCT AGAIN!

  Disgraceful - 2002 Oldsmobile Alero
  By TKincaid - December 5 - 10:00 am

  I 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.

  This car is terrible... - 2002 Oldsmobile Alero
  By Jason - March 28 - 11:10 pm

  I inherited this car when I got married and started pumping cash into it immediately. Things that are wrong: 1. 3 fuel pump replacements 2. constantly blown fuses 3. window motor replaced 4. brakes constantly replaced (1.5 times a year) 5. lights burn out regularly 6. hazzard switch short.
