2002 Oldsmobile Alero Review
"Alero shares its underskin design and powertrains with the Pontiac Grand Am, but has different styling. Coupes and sedans are offered in four trim levels. GX, GL1, and GL2 have a 4-cyl engine. The GLS has a V6 that's optional on GL1 and GL2. Automatic transmission is standard, but manual is available on 4-cyl GX and GL2. All Aleros come with ABS, 4-wheel disc brakes, traction control, air conditioning, power windows/locks, CD player, and cruise control. Note that GM has announced the phase-out of the Oldsmobile brand over the next few years. Alero's performance and accommodations mirror those of comparably equipped Grand Ams."

Number of Units Affected 5,877,718
Summary This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, customers should remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the ignition key. The key fob (if applicable), should also be removed from the key ring. General Motors LLC (GM) notified the agency on July 3, 2014, that they are recalling 6,729,742 model year 2000-2005 Chevrolet Impala and Monte Carlo, 1997-2005 Chevrolet Malibu, 1999-2004 Oldsmobile Alero, 1998-2002 Oldsmobile Intrigue, 1999-2005 Pontiac Grand Am and 2004-2008 Pontiac Grand Prix vehicles. In these models, the weight on the key ring and/or road conditions or some other jarring event may cause the ignition switch to move out of the run position, turning off the engine.
Consequence If the key is not in the run position, the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy GM will notify owners, and dealers will provide two replacement key rings and key cover on all ignition keys, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. GM's number for this recall is 14350.
Notes Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
