2000 Pontiac Grand Am GT review from North America

My engine leaks antifreeze constantly.

Wheel Bearings need replacing every year.

Vehicle does not age well.

Blinkers occasionally stop working, then with a restart of vehicle start working again.

Service vehicle soon lights are always coming on and off.

I have had my Grand AM GT for about 1 year. I purchased it used with 62,000 miles on it. When I purchased the vehicle it was in beautiful shape. The interior and exterior were immaculate. Sure, the mileage was high, but the price was right. I purchased it from a dealer.

Immediately one month after I purchased the car I had a slow anti-freeze leak coming from the gasket area. Also, the wheel bearings on both front wheels went bad. Shortly after I noticed my radio display would scramble repeatedly and would all of a sudden fix itself. Next, my horn stopped working. Next in line are my blinkers, one day they work, the next day they dont.

Also, I have an automatic transmission, but the vehicle seems to shift very hard. Not a smooth operating machine, that's for sure.

Now, after owning the vehicle for about a year I have the "Service Vehicle Soon", "ABS" and "Track off" lights on.

I am dreading to take it to the dealer; everything on this vehicle is at least $500 to fix. It's a nightmare.
