Used 2000 Pontiac Grand Am Consumer Reviews
Nice looking, but........
It looks great. Have owned it for 2yrs & although it looks really nice, there are problems. As soon as the 36,000 mi warranty was up, there was a crack in the fly wheel - VERY expensive. Thsnks to the dealership, they covered it. There have been electrical problems. , the blower motor went on speed 1 & 2 -t $100 to fix. The drivers side window would not go up or down - $300 to fix. There are other signs that there are pending electrical problems. Now the car wont pass inspection because of a bad wheel bearing, NO MORE - so needless to say, I am trading it before it kills me financially.
I HAVE ENJOYED MY GRAND AM GT
AN EXCELLENT CHOICE FOR A VEHICLE. VERY DEPENDABLE. I HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH MINE. DRIVES SMOOTH, VERY FUN TO DRIVE. I LOVE THE BODY STYLE. ABSOLUTELY THE BEST CAR IVE EVER OWNED. I HATE TO SELL IT, BUT I HAVE TO MOVE UP TO AN SUV NOW TO HAVE MORE ROOM FOR OUT GROWING FAMILY. I WILL MISS MY GRAND AM...:(

It is the devil
I got this car 5 years ago with 60,000 miles it now has 123,000 and it was fine up until a year after I bought it. Then it became trouble. My side mirror just randomly fell off, the inside dash is falling apart for no apparent reason, my dome light fell out just the other night when I closed the door! I've replaced the fuel pump, the oil pan, the radiator hose, 2 car window motors, a tail light, the stereo system twice, blinker fuse box, and now the head gasket is offically pooing out! I hate this car with a passion. I believe it is the devil! Also, I started by getting great gas mileage and now I can barely get 24mpg on the highway! And I get maybe 16 in town!
2000 SE1 Electrical Problems
Never again! I've had this car in the shop 9 times in almost 3 years. Mostly electrical problems. Many times the dealerships were very difficult to work with and wouldn't fix it on the first try. When the car is running, it is a great vehicle. I drive easy highway miles and hope to get at least 150,000 miles out of this car, but I'm not holding my breath. Be warned!
Looks nice, not so reliable......
Luved the car at first, very first new fast car... Have always done regular maintance,used only fully synthetic oil,treated this car like my baby, Have brought this car in more times than I want to admit, luckily the dealership talked me into the full warranty or I would have been hosed, the power sterring pump went out, alternator at 60,000, abs light has come on twice to be fixed,anything that was electrical went out!!! signals, daytime running lights,fuel gage, and of course the most expensive the tranny... I luv the looks of it and it got me lots of looks, fast, but just really dissapointing with everything that has gone wrong with it.
