1992 Pontiac Grand Am review from North America
"Very reliable, but can be costly if not taken care of"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Head Gasket blew while still under warranty.
Tensioner at 90,000 miles.
Water pump is going now.
Needed new serpentine belt at 85,000 miles.
General comments?
The bucket seats in front are very comfortable.
This car has very good handling.
Good acceleration most of the time, but it can ride pretty rough sometimes.
This was my first car, and I love it. I'm afraid for the future of it. I wish that I could just put another motor in the same frame.
