2001 Pontiac Grand Am GT review from North America
"I liked my 1994 Grand AM SE better"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've had a minor problem with the seat belt locking up; but a new part has been ordered and I expect it to be taken car of.
The sunroof really creates a low head room problem.
The spoiler makes it difficult to see out of the rear view mirror.
The major problem has been a problem with the aftermarket remote starter I had installed. (AviStart 3200) It only works intermittently and the techs at Best Buy indicate that newer Grand AM's like my 2002 model sometimes are not compatible with after market remote starters. (News to me!) I'm not sure if I'm out $300+ for this or not. Just wanted to put the word out.
General comments?
The car looks great and handles well, with great get up and go.
I thought the price was high for what you get and didn't like that I had to buy the more expensive GT model to get the V6 engine.
