2000 Pontiac Grand Am SE review from North America

This 2000 Grand Am SE has been reliable until I hit about 50,000 miles. The brake drums became warped on my front tires, and I had them replaced a month ago at a cost of approximately 200.00.

The engine plugs and another engine part had to be replaced at that time which cost another 300.00 at the local dealer. The low voltage indicator and turn signal recalls have been serviced on this vehicle as well.

Today I had the driver's side window track worked on. The mechanic had to buy the entire regulator assembly just to replace the plastic holders that had broken. This part cost 300.00 and the labor was 90.00. The mechanic showed me some old broken plastic casings in the bottom of my door from 3 previous replacements of this same mechanism (I bought the car with only 20,000 miles on it). If your window starts to make a scraping sound like mine, get it taken care of. My window just disappeared into my door never to return until I coughed up 423.00. I called GM customer service tonight and added my complaint about these faulty plastic parts in the window regulator assembly. From what I can see on this site, it is time for a recall!
