I LUV IT
I was reluctant to move to a minivan but with two teenage children the time had come. I have been delighted with the space, versatility (8 seats that can be used in many configurations including removal of six to convert to open space)performance and ease of handling. Very comfortable for drivers and passengers.
Montana rocks
This is an affordable, comfortable van that fits a growing family well. The fuel economy needs some work, but otherwise it is a solid, effective vehicle.
Satisfied but could be better
Pleased with the features,space,seating&comfort. Engine is just NOT powerful enough for the size of this van. Sluggish on accleration& VERY POOR GAS MILEAGE. Rear a/c roars like a beast. Exterior paint job has flaws from factory(not a quality paint job) & front wiper system is just awful, because snow & ice accumulate but have nowhere to go, causing the wipers to freeze up in inclement weather. But overall despite the flaws, we are pleased that it offers enough space for our family, friends and gear, and has a comfortable ride.
I drive a lot...
Seems to be buggy. The dealer can't figure out whats wrong. Horn honks periodicaly on its own, Car battery is dead, once jumped its fine. The interior is poor quality. Didn't offer leather in 8 seating option. Pontiac exterior is black, interior is gray and is too light in color to keep clean. They should offer charcoal interior.
Gasket Problems
Have had many troubles with this vehicle. It only has 41k and we have replaced intake gasket and now the head gasket needs replacing at $822 plus $48 for the diagnostic. The inside is very noise and lot's of interior plastic cracking nosies. The headlight range is very poor and the exterior plastic for two-tone effect is coming apart. However, this is a good highway vehicle for long trips, but engine problems at 41k is rather upsetting.
