1996 Pontiac Grand Am Grand AM GT review from North America
"I'm not impressed with the car and would not buy another one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced various sencors.
Replaced the water pump.
Replaced Ignition module.
Replaced coil housing.
Replaced brakes.
Now I have what I think is a bad alternator.
General comments?
The car handles quite well, but it's quite hard on the pocket.
The car wasn't too bad until it hit 80,000 miles then everything started going on it.
