1987 Pontiac Grand Am review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The head gasket and head had to be replaced, due to wear and tear.
The steering is very stiff when you first start the car. The season doesn't affect this either.
General comments?
This is a good first car. Seeing as I'm still a student, it is good for what I need it for. It has, however, been costing me a lot of money due to repairs.
