Good car but has had some issues - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By baitshop - March 21 - 3:37 amI bought this car at 30,000 miles and have put 100,000 more on myself. There were some issues with the steering about two years after I bought it, Olds. recalled the Alero for steering issues but not the Aurora however they have the same steering set up. The steering wheel mounted controls do not light up as they should. In the last two months I have started leaking oil and now I am looking to get rid of it all together. On the plus side, it has really good pick up, lots of extras, lots of power and it does well in all weather. Very safe too. It has been a good car for 140,000 miles but it is going to take some serious cash in the next year to keep it running.

cheap car with expensive price tag - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By heathercorday - December 26 - 10:00 amI didnt get the extendend warranty and wish that I had. The steering pops, in the winter the temperature dosent get warm enough to make the heater blow hot, the window switch went out, now the window regulator is shot, and the rotors are warped.

Hate to Trade It, but... - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By Frank - December 1 - 8:10 pmWe bought this car as an early lease return and paid half of what a new one cost. It has had the typical repairs (dimming headlight problem and ignition switch failure) but overall it has been reliable and a head turner whenever we take it out. It has never seen snow or winter roads (a garage queen) but the resale value is plummeting, parts seem to be in short supply, and my extended warranty is up, so it will be traded in shortly for a fraction of what should be worth. I, too, am sorry GM bailed out on this one. It was my third Olds and by far the best. I tried a Cadillac CTS but it just doesnt come close. Looks like an Acura may be the next step.

No Problems! - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By drorb - July 3 - 10:00 amThe 4.0 V8 is a dream for those of us who suffered throught the Rice Rockets of the 70s. The engine runs on all grades of gasoline with appropriate performance. Not a sports car, but plenty of guts for passing and accelerating.

Fun car, but many problems - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By Aurorakoth - April 22 - 11:26 amThis car is still fun to drive 3 years after I bought it. It gets looks quite often as it is almost one of a kind in my town. I actually seen another black one on the highway and the couple in that car waved in suprise. On the other hand, the reliability of this car has been awful. I bought it with 26,000 miles. Ive had the water pump, secondary air pump, front end parts, stearing parts, and at 74,600 miles, right before the warranty expired, the transmission went out. The car has not been the same since. It shifts hard around 40 mph and the dealerships have tried to fix it, but have not succeded. I think it has to do with the O.D. Besides the expensive repairs, this is a great car.

Olds aurora - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By Terry Roth - December 1 - 2:00 amThis car has a nice luxurious feel about it without being your daddys oldsmobile. It fits nice, drives great and keeps up its appearance and does not get boring to drive into your second, third or fourth year owning it. I wish my 3.5 6-cyl had a bit more spunk but the upside is that it has great gas mileage. I havent had any major problems with the car until the 3rd year where little minor things started to act up.

By WED - June 6 - 10:00 amThis is our third Aurora.During this time we also had two Cadillacs. When i retired we had a 1997 Aurora and a 1997 Cadillac. We sold the Cadillac, though satisfied with it, we felt the Aurora offered more driving pleasure. We drive around town and across co

Best Olds Yet! Too Bad Its the Last! - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By Jack Haney - May 25 - 2:00 amThis is the second Aurora for us. This one is the best Olds we have had. It is also the best car we have had in over 40 years of buying. Not a single warranty claim.
