1988 Pontiac Grand Prix SE review from North America
"An average car that has been with me for years"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
2 new fuel injectors in 1999.
New alternator in 1998.
New headliner in 2000.
New headlamp dimmer swich in 2001.
New water pump in 2000.
Clear coat started pealing off in 2000.
New front wheel bearing in 2001.
New coolant fan in 1999.
General comments?
The car seemed to have a lot of problems in 1999 and 2000.
Besides two new fuel injectors I have had no engine or transmission problems, drive train has always been strong.
Brakes are OK, no problems with them locking up.
There are a lot of rattles and squeaks that come from the dashboard.
The resale value is low one this car, so you can get a good deal.
