1999 Pontiac Grand Am SE review from North America
"Sucks my money, wastes money I don't have"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
What HASN'T gone wrong with this car would be more accurate.
I have had nothing but problems with my '99 Pontiac Grand AM since I have gotten it. Everything folks have written about the Grand AM (sometimes I call it a Grand POS) because that is what it has been for me and a major pain.
Typically there is a major expensive repair at least every 3-6 months. Most recently, I had the security light coming on. I got a new wire about a week ago... a week later, it has come back on. Who knows what "fun", new problem the Grand POS will pose for me this week.
General comments?
Horrible, I wish I had known about this before purchasing it.
