I realize that at the time of filling out this questionairre that this model is no longer being made by gm but I did see I story about the oldsmobile alero having the same problems and felt complelled to write. We have had to replace the brakes four times on this car. We bought the car new in 1995 and it now has 61,000 miles on it. The first two times that the brakes were done they were fixed under the warranty but we have had to replace them ourselves the past two times. The last time was a complete four wheel replacement with rotors and pads all the way around. We were very displeased with the braking system and the fact that they have to be replaced so often.

When trying to stop at a stop sign or light the anti-lock brake system fails to respond, and vehicle rolls part way through the intersection. I crashed into the rear of a vehicle in front of me on another occasion. The system from time to time fails to give immediate sense of stopping..

This concerns the ABS and low traction lights. The ABS light comes on and stays on when driving in wet conditions. If I follow the instructions in the manual, which says to turn the car off and wait a few seconds then turn back on again to reset the system, the problem persists. Occasionaly during this time, the low traction light comes on when breaking also during dry conditions. Brake pedal becomes very choppy while applying brakes, then a sudden stop. Not sure what's causing the problem, but think it needs to be addressed before accident occurs.
