Overview & Reviews
As the Olds brand heads into the sunset, the Alero receives only minor changes. Sport Red is a new exterior color, and the six-speaker stereo has been downgraded to four speakers.
- Sleek styling, brisk performance and handling, user-friendly cockpit design, well-equipped standard model.
- Low-grade interior materials, poor frontal offset crash test score, numb steering, poor resale value.

Pretty fast and reliable little car. - 2004 Oldsmobile Alero
By Bluegill18 - February 20 - 9:42 amIve had my Alero for 2 years and have only had a few problems with the cooling system and window regulator, other than that its a pretty good little car and can show up my friends cars pretty easily. mine has 257,xxx miles on it and still going strong, trans isnt doing the best but what can you expect from a stock 4t40e trans wit 257,xxx miles on it. The exterior is pretty good looking too, i would say in my opinion that it looks better than its Pontiac counterpart the Grand Am, with its aggressively styled front end.

Good Car - 2004 Oldsmobile Alero
By tntrocker513 - November 30 - 12:20 pmThe car runs great, and moves when I tell it to. Good first car if you ask me. The body is an eye catcher and my friends like the ride of it. And the gas I save is great. The only problem I see right now is noise I get when I slow down. Its not bad but it is annoying. All it is the brakes need to be cleaned. All and all its a great car.

Alero - Often Overlooked - 2004 Oldsmobile Alero
By foxyfennec - October 7 - 5:03 pmWhile the Olds Alero is not a super-awesome performance vehicle, it has made me very happy. It gets decent gas mileage, is pleasant to drive and own, and its styling gets a few looks. Its a good used car to have - Ive had no problems with this car yet.

Dont even hesitate to buy one. - 2004 Oldsmobile Alero
By PatrickD844 - July 27 - 6:53 amI have owned my 2004 Alero for just over 3 years now. I bought it barely used with 15k on it, and now it has about 58k. It has been an exceptional car, starting every single time, and never letting me down. The only times its been in the shop have been for maintenance/wear and tear items. A very well made car, and well worth the money I paid for it.

Grreat car - 2004 Oldsmobile Alero
By Duaner1955 - July 6 - 10:00 amHave had the vechile for a month now, and its been great. Extremely happy with the very peppy 4-cyc engine and great gas mileage.. 35+ so far. Love the look and feel of it, as it handles like a sports car. Should have bought it a year ago, instead of putting more money into my old caravan.

WWooooooooHoooooo!!! - 2004 Oldsmobile Alero
By Giorgio - April 17 - 11:23 amI found me a 2004 Alero GL with the 6-cyl. engine with only 29,000 miles for about a little half the price of retail when new. What a deal! It took me a whole month to find the one I wanted and its worth every penny! This car is a lot of fun to drive and is a good looker too. This what I want to be driving now and not the regular brands that everyone else is driving out there for a lot more money. Couldnt be happier, best car decision Ive ever made. Made in America baby!! Whooohooo!!

good car - 2004 Oldsmobile Alero
By Dana - February 19 - 9:50 amI bought this car 2 years ago used and it has not failed me yet. After I first bought it I had it checked by a mechanic and the only problem was a small leak in the transmissions right axle but the dealership fixed it for me after ordering the part and I havent had any problem since. Great car.
