1999 Pontiac Montana EXT review from North America
"Will never buy gm again"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Blown cylinder head gasket-replaced (100,000km)
replaced with different coolant and have not had any problems with coolant or gasket which I suspect must have been the coolant in the first place.
Certain check lights always come on and go out.
Transmission coolant line leak.
Replaced solenoid valve on the transmission.
General comments?
Van has been relatively good except from the above problems and is economical.
