2000 Pontiac Montana review from North America
"GM has lost a long time customer!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The intake gasket is leaking for the 2nd time in 6 months.
1st repair in January 2005 $1,300 to include new lifters that were damaged due to coolant in the oil.
Smell never went away. Dealer (Dave Gill Pontiac in Columbus, Ohio) said it was OK. Now losing coolant in large quantities. Dave Gill will not repair.
General comments?
The van is unreliable.
The Pontiac zone manger would not even talk with me.
The Dealer has been dishonest.
I have contacted BBB and Ohio Attorney General.
GM has lost a long time customer, I will never own another GM product.
