Driver side window off track
Signal lights stopped working
Paint started chipping and peeling out of nowhere
Power locks stopped working
Underneath the dash sounds like a mouse/bird
Gas gauge not accurate - It goes from full to a quarter tank back to a full. You never know how much gas you really have
Power mirrors failed
Car sounds like it will fall apart at the slightest bumps.
When I bought the car and test drove it, seemed like a good car. It was in fairly good shape. I knew the risk of driving a slightly older car, however it was my first car.
Shortly after buying, the dash started squeaking like crazy at every bump. Everything after that just started going in my car.
I understand it's old however, that much should not be going wrong at once. It will cost me a lot to fix to a standard of even selling.
It's comfortable to drive and I get fairly good gas mileage, however I do not think that it is remotely worth fixing everything. I will never buy a Pontiac again.
I had one, a 1994 Grand Am SE. I had it in 2006,it was forever going wrong like yours. It had fairly high Miles,126k, but my 1991 Honda Accord, now has 249k and runs strong. The Grand Am was a total pig even with good standard of routine maintenance. It was forever breaking down, and I am a Mechanic, so I know it was not me. In the End I sold it for 200 bucks less than I paid after putting 11k Miles on it. I got it for 800 bucks. These are all some of the worst cars out there, I was scared to drive this deathtrap!
