1990 Pontiac Grand Am review from North America
"Disposable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Every brake component possible.
Alternator.
Tie rods.
Struts.
Rust and more rust.
General comments?
Very tricky to get in and out as you sit on a recessed floor.
Not sporty no matter how you look at it.
Interior is very cheaply made.
More rust than an old Jetta.
A good winter beater as I was easily cruising through a foot and a half deep snow, while everone else was stuck.
