1997 Pontiac Grand Am SE review from North America
"If they arnt good cars how come you see so many of them still on the road"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The water pump went bad at 110,000 miles and that's is about it and that is common maintenace.
General comments?
I think it is a great car and is a very dependable car. I believe everyones is great and they just don't know where to put the oil if they had to. And I have found out that if you name your gm car it will treat you right. You have to love and talk to your car for it to Love you back by running when you need it and and in sense talking back to you. I know I sound crazy, but I have never broken down before in my GM made cars. Think of the movie Christine. lol Gm till the day I die.
