1996 Pontiac Grand Am SE review from North America

There are a few little quirks in my car, but I'm not sure if they are actually problems. I'm in the process of having them checked out.

For some odd reason, I am able to pull the key out of the ignition while it is on, still running, and even in motion and this does not affect the performance of the car at all.

The dealer gave us the car with "new tires and new brakes." The tires are indeed new, but the brakes were already half-worn when we got it, so since there is a 60 day bumper-to-bumper deal, we're going to bring it back and see if they can be replaced.

This is another thing that bothers me: When the car is completely off, the shifter can be shifted out of park without the button on the shifter even being pushed, and the car actually starts moving. That is something I will also have looked at.

The window on the driver's side is a little bit off-track and does not seal properly when closed all the way.

Both front window motors are a little bit slow.

We also got the car with a very very small leak in the power steering hose. This will also be fixed.

Other than those minor problem (which really have nothing to do with the performance of the car) there is nothing wrong with this car.

I love my car. It is my first car (although my mom and I were sharing a 2002 Nissan Altima for 8 months) and I absolutely love it.

The inside is a little bit small, but it is still comfortable enough.

I always feel safe in my car, and it is good for anyone with any need.
