Overview & Reviews
A five-speed manual transmission is now available with the four-cylinder engine; an eight-speaker premium sound system is now standard on the GLS (optional on GL); and a refined ABS system and 16-inch wheels are now standard on the GLS.
- Sleek styling, brisk performance and handling, ergonomically designed interior, well-equipped standard model.
- Hint of cheapness to interior bits, unrefined engine noise intrudes into passenger compartment, numb steering.

LOVE THIS CAR!! - 2001 Oldsmobile Alero
By alerolova - January 16 - 9:26 pmI was a little worried when i saw this car in my drive way after my parents searched for something after i was in a car crash. I read a lot of reviews and found nothing but horrible reviews nightmare stories and a lot of $$ signs. so after driving it for a while something happened, the hub bar. went bad...but since i work at a dealership...i got the parts for mad cheap thank god. i replaced the shocks and im telling you the car runs like new. amazing. so then i cleaned the engine valve and the injecters...and it starts every time, no clicking...no problems at all. i love the car i love how it handles and its fast. great on gas. so hey a lil investigating goes a long way...only 500 spent. :)

My Alero - 2001 Oldsmobile Alero
By smlzau2fan - September 11 - 10:00 amI have found the 2001 Oldsmobile Alero 2 door GL Sedan an absolutely wonderful buy. Its nice and roomy, comfortable, very driveable, and very eye-catching with or without spoiler or other add- ons. Overall Ive found this car to be quite a nine.

Been a Great Car - 2001 Oldsmobile Alero
By Stephen - June 6 - 1:00 amI bought my Alero used (it was a rental car) with 18,000 miles on it in 2001. It now has close to 130,000 miles on it (02/06). Ive replaced the front brakes a couple of times and I had to replace the fuel regulator at about 102,000 miles. Aside from that and the recall on the soldering of the Hazard button I really cannot complain about this car. I drive 40 miles each way to work and regularly drive 180 miles each way to my parents house on the weekends. I get 27-28 miles per gallon on every tank of gas. My only complaint is the sun visors. I dont like how they come down and stick out.

By ashleylpn - April 27 - 10:00 amFrom the first time I drove an Alero I loved it. I did test out some other cars to get an idea of what I wanted but there was just no question.

Olds Alero GL Sedan - 2001 Oldsmobile Alero
By Alero GL - January 26 - 12:56 pmThis car has been a great family car that is fun to drive. Mine has the sun and sound package, which is a sunroof and upgrade CD/cass/am/fm radio. These features make the car joy to drive.
