1999 Pontiac Montana review from North America
"Wish my ex-wife had taken it in the divorce!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It seems that every single thing others have listed, I have problems with.
Transmission replaced at 40,000.
Engine coolant light from the first day.
All gaskets replaced 60,000.
Air-bag lights on most of the time, short in passenger seat belt.
Traction Control light one, housing replaced at about 50,000.
Volume control on radio does not work, have to use control on steering column.
Auto side door re-opens when it is shut.
72,000 scheduled to get third transmission next week.
General comments?
I bought it from a dealer in another town and my local dealer has been very willing to honor the 75,000 mile extended warranty! I will never by from out of town again and will never get another Pontiac!
