Grand damn am

Well this car can be a hand full. Things to watch out for. First off that oil pressure sensor at the top of the spark plug valley. It will seem like the valve cover leaks but more likely the switch. It leaks from inside of it. The housing for the spark plug they like to crack. Sometimes it's not even visible. Water pump just watch that mother. This car is definitely for mechanical inclined. I'd use 5w20 since it has small oil wells. Deff do ur oil changes every 3000 to 5000 miles at most. Other than that has okise mpg and power they ride well and shift good. They can be very reliable or leave you on the side of the road if neglected.

A beautiful disaster

I fell in love with the Grand Am when my grandmother owned one, and let my family use it at the time our old Plymouth broke down. I threw the car up on a pedestal and practically worshiped the idea. Today, I'm here to tear that idea down. Since buying the car LESS than a year ago when it only had 50,000 miles on it, it has given me nothing but hell. The brakes are poor, three power windows broke down, the head gasket went ($850), tie rod good-bye, CD player Error 20-ed out... and the PassLock system believes I'm the enemy! Granted, the car is fun to drive and looks sleek, but the amount of money invested is NOT worth the pain unless $3000 is in your budget in a six month span.

Nice for an American Car

I admit it is nice for an American car, and it handles very well. The exterior has a very exciting look and the interior definately gives you the sports car feeling. The chrome wheels add that accent in which other than tint your windows, all you have to do when purchasing this car is turn on the ignition and drive...the car will do the rest.

Terrible service from Pontiac Dealers

I've had the 2000 SE1 for just over 2 years. The doors are not lined up and paint has chipped on the doors because of it (in the first 10000 miles). Dealers won't help at all, even the place I bought it. Car was in the shop 3 times for the check engine light. I finally figured out ON MY OWN that the gas cap wasen't tight enough. (smart mechanics) Now, it won't start and has been in twice for this problem in 2 weeks. My entended warrenty didn't even cover half! It was fixed without me ever okaying the extra cost. I fought it and lost. I am so fed up with Pontiac not standing behind their product! Never again.

I bought this car with 63000 miles on it and has been nothing but headache. Window motors broke down, brakes, overheats; you name it. It is unreliable and very unsafe car.
