“The passenger window will not roll up and I have seen several complaints about this problem on this particular make and model. Although there is no damage, I have been concerned about my vehicle being stolen and have been concerned for my personal safety while being unable to roll up the window.”
NHTSA complaint #10257272, filed 2009-02, 67,000 miles“I have researched this problem and there seems to be too many people whose windows jam than fall down into the door. I have personally paid over $400 two times to have this fixed. Also another incident with this car are the blinker which sometimes work and sometimes don't. Just this week another problem with the air conditioning. The blower is not working therefore no defrost in this cold weather.”
NHTSA complaint #10219313, filed 2008-02, 80,000 miles“My car has less than 60,000 miles and I have had constant problems, some repaired, others, the dealer and other repair shops could not determine the causes. Automatic windows won't work two front windows (intermittent) turn signs do not work intermittent, sometimes stop working and danger to me in traffic, air pressure light stays on and tire shop said they could not fix. This has been going on intermittently since before the warranty expired. …”
NHTSA complaint #10104829, filed 2004-12, 10,000 miles“Power window for driver would not go up in 9/03 during a rain storm. After the rain stopped, I took apart door and pushed window up. Window since would not go down. Then during 6/04, the front passenger, and left rear-passenger power windows would not go down either. Left passenger window will lower several inches at random times while parked. No one touches the power window switches in the car since I don't want a window to go down and not be able to get it back up.”
NHTSA complaint #10081080, filed 2004-07, 100,000 miles“There are a number of problems I have had with my 2000 olds Alero gls 4dr. The main concern is the interior dash and door paneling bubbling than eventually starting to come off. My sunroof will not open as well.”
