Used 2000 Pontiac Grand Am Consumer Reviews
One big headache
The car started out great, fun to drive and handled well. I put a lot of miles on it but it looks great and I've taken care of it. But the brakes shake, even after being replaced. The Intake gasket leaks and may cause engine damage. The drivers window no longer rolls up the whole way. People have made comments that it doesn't sound good and that it makes a lot of noises. Not being able to check the transmission fluid caused a problem when the dealership failed to put enough in and I couldn't tell without taking it back to them. It just seems to be a constant headache.
What the.......with pontiac
This car was great for the first 3 years. I bought mine brand new with 159 miles on it. At 33000 miles it started to have problems. It all started with the intake gaskets, then the #6 fuel injector, then the radiator flow being blocked and the thermostat sticking at 37000. Right after the warranty??? I have spent $1000 in the last month on repairs to include the drivers door window, but that was repaired for free. Thank god for GM Goodwrench Service Plus Dealers and it was a Chevy dealer at that. I agree with WhyMe. Great car, then it starts to fall apart even if you baby it like I did. Time for me to go back to Ford........

Great car, horrible service from Pontiac
I bought my '99 GT as a "GM Certified Used Vehicle". While it was still under warranty the paint started to peel badly on the trim moldings behind both windows. I took it to the local Pontiac dealership & they suggested calling Pontiac because they wouldn't do anything for me. Ponitac refused to do anything about it as well. They gave me every excuse they could think of including that this was normal wear and tear. (the car was only 2 yrs old) Pontiac completly rejected the idea of taking care of this small paint job & taking care of me as their (former) loyal customer. This is a great car, one of the best I've owened, but I will not buy another Pontiac after the treament I recieved!
very cool car for the price
Smoothe ride with the feel of a muscle car.
