2001 Pontiac Grand Am 2002 review from North America
"A piece of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 8,000 miles they had to install a new rack and pinon in my car. Of course they had to put new brake shoes and rotors on it before that. I have this continuous popping noise in my front end of my car that I can feel up in my steering wheel and the dealer says it is my wheel bearings.
General comments?
This car is the worst investment I have ever made and to thing it my first new car. Whenever I go around curves the steering wheel wants to do its own thing. I love the looks of this car. I get all kinds of comments that it is a beautiful car, and believe me IT IS. I rides really smooth and you can't hardly hear it running. However, I will never buy another one I will convert to fords. I was raised in a Chevrolet family, but I will have to go against it.
