1999 Pontiac Montana review from North America
"High cost nightmare!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had nothing but electrical problems from the start with this van.
It started off with the Pass Key III keys. They weren't program correctly. (at least that's what I was told after the dealership had my car for over a day)
Then some dashboard lights kept coming on and off, until they stayed on. Dealer fixed a lose wire.
Now my electric mirrors only go in one direction and seem to move on there own.
I am also having another Pass Key III issue. This time the module is broke and will cost around $500 to fix. (Apparently this causes dashboard lights to come on. Now that my warranty is up they can't fix it with the lose wire method)
General comments?
This van is not worth the money I paid for it. I will never buy one again. Nor will I ever buy a Pontiac product in the future.
The only thing nice about this van is the way it looks.
