[R] Finding out collinearity in regression

Hi, I am trying to find out a collinearity in
explanatory variables with alias().
I creat a dataframe:
dat <- ds[,sapply(ds,nlevels)>=2]
dat$Y <- Response
Explanatory variables are factor and response is
continuous random variable. When I run a regression, I
have the following error:
fit <- aov( Y ~ . , data = dat)
Error in "contrasts<-"(`*tmp*`, value =
"contr.treatment") :
contrasts can be applied only to factors with
2 or more levels
I think there is a dependency in explanatory
variables. So, I wanted to use alias to find out a
dependency in design matrix but I can't because I
cannot create "fit" in the first place.
One of examples I found is:
carprice1.lm <- lm(gpm100 ~
Type+Min.Price+Price+Max.Price+Range.Price,data=carprice)
alias(carprice1.lm)
But, what if I can create lm object ? Then is there a
way to find out a dependency in design matrix? Thanks
a lot for help in advance!
