1988 Pontiac Grand Am review from North America
"A very reliable car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Amazingly nothing has gone wrong with this car (knock on wood). It's still running as if we just bought it. The only thing is the paint has faded (due to repainting after an accident) and there is rust that comes back after repairing several times.
General comments?
Overall I think this a very well made car. After having this car for 13 years and seeing everything it's gone through, and knowing it will still start up makes me proud to own it. I feel it's more reliable then some new cars today.
