1994 Pontiac Grand Am review from North America
"If not for the wiring, this would be a wonderful car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Many things have gone wrong with this car. Recently we had to have the alternator replaced, for the second time.
The windows do not work well. We have had to have the belts replaced twice in the windows.
The door locks have never worked.
The back doors lock fell off. Unable to replace it due to how it broke.
Seat wore out quickly. They are worn down to the foam.
Some days the lights won't turn on, some days they won't turn off! Its the same situation with the turn signals. The wiring in the car is completely shot.
General comments?
The car over-all is a wonderful car. I hate the fact so many things have gone wrong with it. It drives like a dream and has really good get up and go. Its really a shame that its done so poorly.
