1994 Pontiac Sunbird LE review from North America
"Looks good"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well I bought the car and it had 53000kms on it and at 58000kms the head went and had to be redone.
At 62000kms I had to have the injectors done because the car wasn't running to well.
I've been constantly replacing the thermostats.
At 100000kms the transmission had to be replaced do to the seals leaking.
The door and trunk seals are always leaking.
The rad cap never tightens and always leaks.
And most recently the 2.0 litre engine had to be replaced.
General comments?
Over all the car isn't that bad it could have been put together a lot better at the factory. But it does get good fuel economy when it is being driven. But for the amount of time the car is off the road it's in the shop getting something new done to it. So as for what I think about the car is If the factory would have taken a little more time in the first place I wouldn't have be spending so much now on all the repairs it needs now.
