1989 Pontiac Grand Prix SE Coupe review from North America
"Great car, and when I get rid of it, I'll regret it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power steering hose.
Door handle latches.
Interior roof is falling off.
Transmission leaked, replaced gasket.
When the car down shifts it acts like it wants to die.. stopped now, but I don't know what caused that, it happens every once in a while.
White alloy wheels are pain in the ass to clean.
Radiator blew at 138000.
General comments?
This has been an excellent car, even though I have wanted to get rid of it since the day I got it (only because I wanted a truck). I travel at least 400 miles every weekend with it, and NEVER have a problem with it. Very reliable, sharp, and not to bad on performance. It can beat a lot of other cars out there.
