2000 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS review from North America
"Don't Buy!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
With less than 1000 miles the O2 sensor went out.
Front driver seat has never felt completely stable.
Driver's side window has always been "loose." After I roll in down a ways I have to push down on it to stop it from rattling.
Rear view mirror shakes. Very annoying when looking in the mirror. Dealer states it cannot be tightened.
Sunroof rattles something terrible. Dealer states they cannot find the source.
Loud click when changing from defrost to panel air.
Air conditioning does not cool very well.
General comments?
It wouldn't be a bad car if the dealer could fix all the little problems.
I bought a sporty car after having a Ford Explorer and the Monte Carlo SS is fun to drive.
