1984 Pontiac Fiero SE review from North America
"A great little car that should be put back into production"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My alternator stopped working at 90,000 miles as well as the starter. Changed both in about an hour.
Seats became torn at about 110,000 miles.
Paint starting to fade from being stored too long and age.
General comments?
A great car with a great feel to it.
Handles the northeast roads with no problem until the snow flies.
The cabin is quite comfortable for the quick trip to the store a jaunt across the state.
The car sat for four years before I purchased it. Ran it for 2 years before storing it once again. Now 8 years later it is once again out of storage and ready to hit the highways once again.
Never needed more than general maintenance and a few other inexpensive parts. A true testament to Pontiac engineering.
