2000 Pontiac Grand Am GT review from North America

General comments?

In response to the person who had commented on Aug 23rd, 2004 at 20:10, I also have had issues with the power window on the driver's side. I have had my 2000 GA-GT since 2002 and started having issues with the window in 2004. I found it not working one season and as I was preparing to have it repaired, it began working again. Same thing happened in 2005 and again this year. It is currently not working again as of three weeks ago.

Fairly recently I was in a Jack in the Box drive through and I opened my door to receive the food since the window was not working. The guy at the window asked me if the window stopped rolling down, and when I looked at him with my shocked 'how did you know?' look, he proceeded to tell me of a buddy of his who had the same problem. Apparently the friend was told by mechanics that the large amount of electrical components on the GA-GT sometimes causes shorts, disabling the driver's side window. Don't know if this is true, but it sounded acceptable enough to me.

Other than this 'slight' problem and the light falling out of the center of the roof every once in a while, I love the car. Excellent handling, picks up speed quickly, comfortable, more than I could ask for.

Oh, and by the way, thanks to those of you who have provided the websites for performance parts!
