Now that I have repaired these problems... my windshield wiper motor stopped working today, future attention front/rear suspension, A/C failed, heat blows out on driverside floor when heat is turned off, only settings 4 and 5 work on heater, CD players scratches ruins all CDs, driverside power window gets stuck and don't work properly, passenger sliding door jams, I am waiting for the manifold to fail me, and to top it all off, I FIND OUT MY VEHICLE IS ON GM'S RECALLED LIST...
I missed out on refund from GM... :(
This Pontiac Montana 2003 is a LEMON, CAUSES HEADACHES.
The worst part about this, I am not finished paying off the loan, two more years to go of repairs.
I thought I was buying a family van, more like a death wish waiting to happen.
I don't know what you're complaining about. Every car needs brakes, tires, bulbs and the like. You're unhappy with the vehicle because of having to replace normal wear and tear items?
