2005 Pontiac Grand Am GT review from North America
"Love it, but nothing but problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought my car in December of 2004 and the summer of 2005 I had my first problem with the car. I had to replace the brakes. Following that another problem with the window motors and the windows squeaking as well as the driver's side front wheel squeaking. Then in about January of 2006 I picked up my car from servicing and brought it home a couple hours later it would not start! They could not tell me what the problem was. It's been in there for the past week for the same reason. I love the car, but its been nothing, but a pain to me.
General comments?
The car is fast and I love that about it. I have no other complaints about the car except for what was listed above. The car is comfortable, fast, and so great to drive except when it is giving me these problems which seems like it always is. I've had to suffer through seeing my poor car be put on a tow truck twice since the beginning of this year it sucks.
