Overview & Reviews

Any music lovers out there? For 2003, the Alero expands its scope of available sounds by offering XM Satellite Radio as an option. It's the only Oldsmobile to do so.

• Sleek styling, brisk performance and handling, ergonomically intelligent interior, well-equipped standard model.

• Hint of cheapness to interior bits, numb steering, poor resale value.

  seems reliable to me - 2003 Oldsmobile Alero
  By geri7 - March 13 - 11:16 pm

  I havent seemed to have any serious problems with my 03 Alero, which is now at 201,700 miles. Just some part that needed to be replaced, which included my fuel pump, but that was my fault, because I hated so much to stop and get gas, and my gas will always be on empty. And a harmonic balancer and something that has to do with the drivebelt. But that was just very recent. So, I have to say, my car has served me very well. But, 3 of my windows dont work anymore. But I can live with that. Those arent the parts that matter anyway. Very satisfied with my car. Oh, love the stereo.

  Love This Car! - 2003 Oldsmobile Alero
  By luv_alero - October 6 - 2:00 am

  I have had my 2000 Alero for 2.5 years and absolutely love it! It handles beutifully and really hugs the road. The interior is comfy and quiet. Very smooth ride. I was in a fairly bad front end accident (+/- 30-35 mph) two years ago. I was very pleased with the safety performance of the car. Even after the accident, Ive (surprisingly) had absolutely no problems with it. My lease is up in 6 months and I am torn between getting another one or not since GM is closing Oldsmobile. Too bad, they had a wonderful product with the Alero.

  Another great Olds - 2003 Oldsmobile Alero
  By zelda - May 25 - 2:00 am

  I have owned/driven most America makes & models over the years, but most have been Olds. While I have had lemons with other makes, never with Olds. This is another great one. (I also have a 2002 Bravada) Will probably hang on to these until Im too old to drive since they will no longer be made.

  2003 Alero - 2003 Oldsmobile Alero
  By GrammaB - January 27 - 4:26 pm

  I bought this Alero from a dealership as a used vehicle with 11,000 miles on it. The fuel pump died at 58,000 miles, and the brakes had to be replaced once. All other expenses were my fault. This has been a great car. Gas mph averages about 24-26 mph, a bit more on highway. It has about 66,000 miles on it now. Sure am sorry GM discontinued Oldsmobiles! I am trading for a Chevy Malibu, hope I am not disappointed.

  Sporty, sporty, sporty - 2003 Oldsmobile Alero
  By Monet - July 29 - 2:00 am

  I love this car. It knocks the Honda Civic, which was my last car, right out of the running. The spacious interior, the cocpit feeling drivers quarters, and convenient placement of the ac/cd/radio is great.

  Car has been great so far - 2003 Oldsmobile Alero
  By BJ - July 9 - 10:10 pm

  I have had the ignition problem but seems to have gone away after taking all keys off except house key and ignition. I have 120k on it and have only replaced front hubs at 86k and fuel pump at 96k. Everything else works great and I love the rds stereo system. I use synthetic oil and have had the car since it had 56k on the odom. I get 26 in town and 34 on the highway with the 2.2 4cly as long as I drive it easy.

  alero review - 2003 Oldsmobile Alero
  By Aida Reyes - July 4 - 2:00 am

  This car is quite strong. I was in an accident with a Chevy Tahoe that broadsided my alero on the passenger side and the Tahoe went away hurting. My alero was messed up inside but I was able to walk away a little banged up, but alive. Good car.
