2001 Pontiac Montana LX review from North America
"Avoid buying, even with low miles"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Started with recalls.
Was not running smooth, injector flush and fuel filter.
Transmission shudder.
Transmission flushed.
Transmission trashed.
Replaced transmission.
General comments?
This van is having more problems than I can handle. Transmission went out after Pontiac dealer flushed it.
Dealer wanted $2500 for a new on installed. Van only has 57000 miles on it and it's never pulled a trailer or driven in hilly places.
I will trade this van off and find something with less costly problems.
