1999 Pontiac Montana review from North America
"This van needs to be inspected to make sure the parts that are defective are replaced"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My air ride suspension pump went so I replaced it. It was very expensive. One year and 10 days later it went again.
Dealer told me there was no warranty.
The brakes had to be replaced. One year later they had to be replaced again.
Rear window washer motor went.
Back window in the van exploded for no apparent reason, sending glass flying every where.
General comments?
I was very happy with my Montana. The ride is very comfortable. There is lots of room for the children. It just seems that after around 60,000 km, the van starts to fall apart. Repairing is a very expensive tasks for these vans.
