1999 GMC Sonoma SLS review from North America
"Not a bad truck, but it really needs some refinements"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Seat back adjusting lever broke off.
It has a small leak in the rear end.
The front clip seems to be "drooping".
Driver side A-pillar leaks during wash and rain.
Plastic around side glass is coming apart.
Excessive wind noise.
General comments?
The 4cyl automatic is underpowered.
Has a nice ride to it, comfortable.
Gets good gas mileage.
Interior is laid out nicely.
