1998 Pontiac Grand Am SE review from North America
"Hey we own 2 of them, that should say it all"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far, nothing. But the brake pads
have had to be replaced since I've owned
it. The car handles as well as our
other Grand Am that we still own. It has
a little over 185,000 miles on it and
is still running down the highway with
ease. My son's car now. At 75,000 miles,
the front end needed alignment and at
110,000. Now at 185,000 my son informed
me that it needs an alignment again. If
that's the worst I can say about the
Grand Am, it has far exceeded
our expectations! We change the oil
every 3000 miles on both cars and watch
the fluids like a hawk.
General comments?
I do take issue with people who say
the seats aren't comfortable. To
us,it fits us to a T. It has quick
accelleration and gets us where we
want to go.
