1999 Pontiac Grand Am SE review from North America
"An excellent choice"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Ever since I own this car, I have never had any problems with it. Except the usual oil change, filter change and everything that the book recomend for you to do at a certain mileage.
The only big thing that I had to do is change the tires. They were some expensive, $400 for the 4 of them, but I think this car deserves it.
General comments?
The Grand Am response on passing gear is excellent, it will not die on you. Also, the mileage that I get on the highway is great! The only thing I do not like is the mileage I get on the city. I believe I got more mileage in my '94 cavalier that on the Grand Am, but I am usually on the road so, it doesn't matter that much.
