In theory, a spoiler adds drag which would in fact slow down an object in motion. However, most popular vehicles with spoilers will never travel fast enough that the driver would really notice.
On high-performace vehicles, spoilers are designed specifically to provide downforce, holding the tires firmly to the ground and compressing the suspension at high speed to increase traction and thus improve performance in these cars at high speed.
