Used 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora Sedan Consumer Reviews
Long term owner
Bought used as a GM "program" car and have never regretted purchase. I have put 104,000 miles on this beauty and it has never let me down. The exterior has held up exceptionally well and the interior as well. Had some warranty work on AC vents (plastic broke), replaced an actuator on the rear window, and have an oil pan gasket leaking (engine has to be removed to fix--won't do that). I am on my 2nd set of tires--the Michelins OEM tires went 65000 miles before I replaced and it looks like the ones on it now will go as far. Good ride and handling, fast as a snake, and comfortable on the road. Very quiet idling--that still amazes me, can't hear or feel it even after all these years.
Good
I found this car to be all that I had hoped for and more. I was looking for a car with comfort,performance and handeling. While it's not a road racer it does very well. It is easy to drive and supplys all the ginger bread you could want while still giving you a good feel of the road.
Best car I've ever owned
Why did Olds go away?! I've had many new cars, but this is definitely the best overall value. It's fun to drive, still looks good, and I'd keep it forever, but putting too many miles on it. It's a terrific vehicle.
Great Car -- Good Lincoln/BMW Competitor
Too bad GM couldn't market this to the late thirty, early forty something effectively as this is a great car. I thoroughly enjoy the ride, features, handling, performance, sound, leather, size, sound.
aurora the flag ship car of OLDS?????
This is a garbage car, was very excited when I first got it.This car was fun to drive for the first two weeks, then the problems... ready here you go: Sunroof leak - 2 weeks Car wont start - 3 months Wipers stop working - 6 months Steering pinion broke - 7 months Rear window falls into door (suring a nice snow fall) - 12 months Water pouring out of the locking mechanism of the trunk this not covered under warranty, GM says it is not a poor workmanship issue, but the give me a $1000 voucher towrds the purchase of a new GM vehicle. 12 months have more to say, not enough room Long and short... if you buy this garbage car, you better get a very long extended warranty
